I have this same problem with a USB-stick containing a LUKS-key. The problem occurs only with kernel 2.6.28-11-server but not with kernel 2.6.27-11-server both with Ubuntu 9.04 Server Edition. Bothe kernels are present on same disk.
During boot a get this message "modprobe FATAL could not load li/modules/2.6.8-11-server/modules.dep", but the file is present on the disk. The Boot-proces does continue but loading of early encrypted files does not succeed because it cannot find the USB-device with the LUKS keys.
