I tried reproducing the bug with Quantal running on VirtualBox with disk space 
10.7GB .
jibel's words echo exactly what I experienced.
While rebooting it said, 


"The disk drive for /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 not ready yet or not present.
Continue to wait or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery."


Within a minute system rebboted without any error.
On booting, like you suggested, I executed "free -m"
The result is:


swan@swan-VirtualBox:~$ free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          1003        620        382          0         24        338
-/+ buffers/cache:        257        745
Swap:         1021          0       1021 


Though, "sudo sfdisk -l" produced an error:
swan@swan-VirtualBox:~$ sudo sfdisk -l
[sudo] password for swan:

Honestly, I didn't understand that.
