Originally posted by Sophie If it works after you get the DVD out then problem solved. If you're still getting dropped into a recovery shell see if you can boot properly via USB. It's what i do before i start reading 1000 lines of dmesg output.
its working fine now, i've even put a different dvd in and that's playing fine right now. it was a bit slow booting tho and it did start to run those error codes for about 10 lines or so then it just started up.

You need to run a file system check to ensure integrity since it was having problems with your encrypted volume. fsck will do this, but you need to know what volume to run it on, hence the reason I was asking for the output of parted /dev/sda 'print'
Typically speaking, you can use: fsck /dev/sda(number for your volume here) to check. -

Let it go, Speccy. I already exposed you as a Google copy/paster. Just let it go. Stick to Windows XP. Let Linux boys handle this. -

It means that no error in the filesystem was found. You can go further with using the Ultimate Boot CD like I mentioned earlier if you wanted to do a manufacturer test on the drive, but you've probably already found your problem - The DVD that was stuck in the drive.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

2018-08-05 at 9:45 PM UTCIf it was the CD drive causing the issues, it wouldn't have given the "unrecoverable read" error.
