The problem is reproducable. After latest updates my 10.04 Ubuntu Desktop (with cryptdisk) also hangs in startup. Ctrl-Alt-Del is working. Switching to one of the tty's (Ctrl-Alt-Fx) doesn't. The system seems to be up (server edition was reachable with SSH). Maybe it has something to do with

OK, it doesnt seem to be related to my script. In my script I set as root (after booting) CRYPTDISKS_ENABLE to Yes in /etc/default/cryptdisks. Then I restart the crypdisks service, enter the password, it tries to mount the disk, and I put a No in /etc/default/cryptdisks for the next boot. Works

Ok, it looks like what we have here is a blocking write from plymouthd to some client that has stopped listening. There's not enough information to tell us what client or why, but I think it's a bug that the plymouth server doesn't have a sensible timeout for writes. If you have time to also

strace.txt.1165 shows that 'plymouth --ping' gets called, and instead of immediately exiting because plymouthd isn't running, it manages to connect to plymouthd and then hangs waiting for an answer! Why is plymouthd running on your system? It's only supposed to be running at startup or shutdown.
