Computer fails to continue after decrypting system

Hi!

So a couple of months ago I decided to roll with an encrypted system. It worked perfect, until recently.. when it stopped booting after a successful decrypt, it just sits there "chewing" on something but refuses to continue.
After rebooting the computer a couple of times, it successfully continued the boot and everything worked out alright. But this has been a continuous thing through out the last couple of weeks, so I decided to reinstall the entire system and hoping that it would fix the issue.
Which is did.. for a day or two, and now it's back to how it was before the reinstallation..

Does anyone have an idea on what could be wrong?

Can you post some logs? From the symptoms likely related to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=238554

So what am I looking for in the logs? I've tried doing some of the things mentions in the link you included, i.e. fstab and downgrading lvm but it didn't help
