Can you get grub to appear? If you can an easy way to get in
Go to the end of the line with options and add to the end I think
shell=/bin/sh
I have it in a notebook at work and will double check. I have used it
to get by passwrods many times.
I wil post the answer in the AM

That's a killer. I had some similar issue some years ago. Bruteforce
luks and the entire boot process is slow. So the whole thing cant take
weeks or even months depending on the size of the password. After 4
weeks with an i7 and 8g of ram it barely made it pass the 5 or 6
character length tries. Make a clone of the luks header and run
bruteforce luks as iso image on multiple computers. You might speed up
the process.

If you remember some part of your password it might be
possible to use
the bruteforce-luks package to recover the full password, if that
fails then you will need to reinstall and restore data from any
backups you might have.
