Did you remember to make an unencrypted /boot partition? The Debian installer does not support encrypted /boot partition, you will need to leave it unencrypted. For example, see my current partition table: matthew@matt-tower:~$ lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT sda 8:0 0 465.8G 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 953.7M 0 part /boot ├─sda2 8:2 0 1K 0 part └─sda5 8:5 0 464.8G 0 part └─sda5_crypt 254:0 0 464.8G 0 crypt ├─root--swap-root 254:1 0 447G 0 lvm / └─root--swap-swap 254:2 0 17.8G 0 lvm [SWAP] sdb 8:16 0 931.5G 0 disk └─sdb1 8:17 0 931.5G 0 part └─sdb1_crypt 254:3 0 931.5G 0 crypt └─home-home 254:4 0 931.5G 0 lvm /home /boot is its own unencrypted partition, root and swap are in a LUKS encryption, and /home is on its own hard disk (and also LUKS encrypted)
