Two days ago I installed the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on my laptop, now I have got a big problem I cannot sort out, even by reading and checking what some of you stated in the explanations.

Problem: (Its in german so the translation may not be totally equal) "The harddrive for /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 is not yet ready or non existent."

As asked : nano /etc/fstab

  GNU nano 2.2.6             Datei: /etc/fstab                                  

 # /etc/fstab: static file system information.  
 #  
 # Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a  
 # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices  
 # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).  
 #  
 # <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>  
 proc            /proc           proc    nodev,noexec,nosuid 0       0  
 # / was on /dev/sda1 during installation  
UUID=ec755811-c3d0-4ffa-99d4-cb23a07a706a /               ext4    errors=remoun$  
 # swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation  
 #UUID=8085f746-2ae9-48ad-82aa-35fd8ace1009 none            swap    sw          $  
 /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 none swap sw 0 0

To resolve the cryptswap1 issue, open a terminal window and then do

sudo nano /etc/fstab

and comment out the inappropriate line with cryptswap1 with an octothorpe ( # ) in the first column. Then make sure you have a line for the standard swap partition, like

/dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0

Save the file and exit with

Ctrl-O
Ctrl-X

and reboot the system.
