Repair "ubuntu--vg-root" not found with LUKS and LVM encryption

Crypt-fix

Use this script via curl -L -O https://gist.github.com/dragon788/e777ba64d373210e4f6306ad40ee0e80/raw/a86f3d05fb56feb6ef01fc2d61a4feb2fd82b281/crypt-fix.sh and sudo bash ./crypt-fix.sh. You may need to edit the DEVICE variable to reflect your disk and partition layout (this was created on an EFI system using LUKS and LVM). It will prompt you for your disk password once to mount and discover the correct name for the encrypted volume mount and then prompt again to mount with the correct name so that the update-initramfs command succeeds with the appropriate mapping, if this wasn't done you would get a warning and your next boot would still fail.

Steps to install a Comodo PositiveSSL certificate with Nginx.

Setting up a SSL Cert from Comodo

I use Namecheap.com as a registrar, and they resale SSL Certs from a number of other companies, including Comodo.

These are the steps I went through to set up an SSL cert.

Purchase the cert
