Title:
  encrypted lvm cannot be accessed with non-us keybord layout

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If you install ubuntu into an encrypted lvm, the installer does not
  take into account that your chosen keyboard layout is not available at
  boot-time.

  As an example:
  if you install ubuntu in german,
  and choose a password containing german "Umlaute" (ä, ö, ü)
  you will not be able to boot your fresh install, as you cannot give the correct password with the us-layout available at boot-time.

  This bug affects ubuntu and any derivate of it, up to and including
  13.10.
