Public bug reported:

I am using http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/oneiric/main/installer-
armel/current/images/omap4/netboot/ to install encrypted guided LVM over
the serial port. It installs but the installed bootloader does not have
"console=ttyO2,115200", causing the passphrase prompt to not appear on
reboot. This means that I cannot enter the passphrase so the system is
not bootable.

Workaround: edit the SD card FAT partition as follows:

 1. dd bs=1 skip=72 if=boot.scr of=boot.script
 2. Edit boot.script and add console=ttyO2,115200
 3. Run "mkimage -A arm -O linux -T script -C none -d boot.script boot.scr" 
(from the u-boot-tools package)
