You answer is a bit distributed over several messages, but no problem.

What is not really interesting is hwat caused the problem.
Ok, here are some more ideas: Maybe a key on the keyboard 
is broken and does not work or does not work reliably

a successful decrypt an it only looks like it does not
start. 

Is this plain dm-crypt? (It it is old...)
