From the reading I've done, it seems it's having issues mounting the encrypted files. The guys here: could not mount /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 Seem to be suggesting how to fix it, but I am new to Linux and have NO idea how to do any of that. Can anyone walk me through how to edit that file?

Or should I just reinstal? Is there a way to reinstall and keep my programs? I do have separate partitions for boot root home and swap

Open the terminal by pressing Ctrl+Alt+t and enter su then type in your pass word and next enter gedit /etc/fstab the file will open and you can edit it accordingly, save and close gedit. Type exit to exit from root and continue with the rest of the directions given.
