Bug description:
  Ubuntu Server 20100419.1 (RC candidate), installed with LVM encrypted
  partitions.

  You get a text-based password prompt (as expected) but when you type
  in your passphrase, for each character you type, the prompt is
  displayed again on the next line:

  original prompt:
  Unlocking the disk ... (sda5_crypt)
                               Enter passphrase: :

  Typing the first character of the passphrase results in the following display:
  Unlocking the disk ... (sda5_crypt)
  Unlocking the disk ... (sda5_crypt)
                               Enter passphrase: :*

  
  Note that this doesn't prevent the unlocking from being successful.
