I have encrypted disk, which is split into lvm2 volumes.
mkinitcpio.conf
HOOKS="base udev autodetect keyboard keymap encrypt lvm2 usr block filesystems"
My laptop with the similar partition layout just works:
Device Start End Sectors Size Type
/dev/sda1 2048 4095 2048 1M BIOS boot
/dev/sda2 1052672 3149823 2097152 1G Linux filesystem
/dev/sda3 3149824 625142414 621992591 296.6G Linux filesystem
What could be the problem?

What boot loader/manager are you using? How is it configured (paste the file(s))?

I'm using grub. To show grub.cfg I'll need your advice on how to ssh into the live system, as ss -ntlp shows that nothing is listening...

So you don't have physical access to the server?

I do have physical access to the server, but it would be much more convenient to copy-paste rather than physically type everything, unless you know exactly which parameters might be wrong?
Offline
Chroot in and use a paste service like sprunge or ptpb to paste the file (the wiki has pages on both).

Thanks for the advice, there's more info:

Your root line in the grub config should point to the mapped device:

Same issue after last lts kernel update! I use syslinux as Bootloader

My problem was different. I had to change my vmlinuz line as follows:
linux /vmlinuz-linux cryptdevice=UUID="66c13ce6-1e79-447a-9fd5-b327e01f0fee:luks_root" root=UUID=e517034b-f51d-46d7-931e-c6592de6bfe5 rw quiet nomodeset
Note that cryptdevice parameter was missing...
PS: there's nothing wrong with selecting the root device by UUID

I have had mount my partions and chroot into system with live iso and mkinitcipio linux-lts -p and now I can use my laptop!
