Lilo refusing to boot encrypted Slackware
by Mackyboy123 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5A9C6)
I have just installed Slackware on a usb stick, encrypting it with LVM and LUKS. When I boot it up with lilo, I get this error:
```
LUKS device '/dev/sdc2' unavailable for UNLOCKING!
ls: /dev/cryptvg/swap: no such file or directory
ash: write error: Invalid argument
mount: mounting /dev/cryptvg/root on mnt failed: No such file or directory
ERROR: No /sbin/init found on rootdev (or not mounted). Trouble ahead. You can try to fix it. Type exit when things are done.
```
Then it drops me into a shell
