Boot is > proceeding" As an aside, consider adding a read to the failure case. That would give the user a chance to reboot the system manually before the boot continues, which is particularly useful in the case when files within the encrypted container are required for a successful boot. I was in a very similar situation for a while but with ZFS, where if the ZFS pool import failed for some reason the system was _mostly_ bootable but aside from fixing whatever caused the pool to not import, I'd have to also clean out a bunch of directories so that the file systems would mount cleanly. (ZFS does not do overlay mounts by default.)
