Title:
  16.04.1 LTS hang during boot 4.4.0-45-generic with /etc/crypttab.
  Boots fine in 4.4.0-42-generic and older

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  System hangs during boot with 4.4.0-45-generic if /etc/crypptab
  contains a valid entry. Passphrase prompt never seen. Black screen
  with blinking underscore in upper left corner. Repeated attempts to
  type passphrase have no effect.

  There are two workarounds:
  1) Comment out line referring the encrypted partition in /etc/crypttab and 
/etc/fstab. Mount the partition manually after boot completes
  2) Boot in 4.4.0-42-generic which works as do earlier versions. i.e. the user 
provides passphrase at the prompt during boot and the system finishes booting

  robert@kalymnos:~$ cat /etc/crypttab
  spare2 UUID=498b08bb-5e6b-4ddf-8b37-e059665a34e6 none luks
  robert@kalymnos:~$ grep mapper /etc/fstab
  /dev/mapper/spare2                        /spare2     ext4 defaults 0 2
