The installation is LUKS encrypted apart from boot and efi partitions. The 1TB SSD is for user files and is LVM volume group da and logical volume da, the 256MB is volume group dk and divided into root, home, var, tmp and swap partitions. The installation proceeded correctly up to installing GRUB. It is not clear where to install it but wherever I try I come up with a message "Unable to install GRUB in /dev/sda" (or the equivalent in other partitions). It did seem as if initrd was trying to mount root on a partition that had not been decrypted, but trying in rescue mode when the partitions are decrypted before attempting to install GRUB comes up with the same error.
