Good tip w/ the rebooting. Although I did reboot several times, I did not realize that my system is actually booting into an old configuration.

Should I close this issue and if I can't figure out what is wrong I'll open a new one? Or can you give me some tips in this issue? I think I messed something up with the system encryption and boot loader. |
It sounds like the current issue's contents won't be much relevant to your actual issue, so it seems better to start a new thread. |
For quick questions/tips it might be better to use IRC (but I rarely go there personally). |
