Where are you running the image? This may be a problem with the
mount-encrypted tool if it expects to find a TPM but doesn't see one.

I had this problem using DroidDrive on my GNexus.  It was because I selected "Read Only".  Once I selected "Read/Write" I was able to boot up no problem.  Not exactly your situation but I hope it helps a bit.

I'm getting this same thing on an Asus Eee 701.
I've tried two different Vanilla builds. One from today and one from a few months ago. I've tried them on both a USB stick and an SD card. :(

Boots up over and over again, just says "Your system is repairing itself" for about 5 seconds then restarts.

Can you mount the first partition of your USB stick / SD card (after seeing the repair message) using your desktop, and get the content of unencrypted/clobber.log ?
Data inside that file may help to diagnose what happened.

I had the same issue on my Asus Eee 900.

I first tried some latest Hexeh iso's, and finally build chromium from source.

I used dd if=[source.iso or .bin] of=/dev/sdb bs=4M to copy the isos or bin file to an usb-disk

After that, even before booting my Eee 900 the ROOT-A partition is not readeble.

Error mounting /dev/sdb3 at /media/martin/ROOT-A: Command-line `mount -t "ext4" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid" "/dev/sdb3" "/media/martin/ROOT-A"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb3,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so


Hopes this helps a bit and/or someone can help me with this problem.

Kind regards, Martin

For your case, it seems like the image is corrupted.
Probably you removed USB before it's completely synced.

Try to add "iflag=fullblock oflag=dsync" in your dd command and then try again.

Thanks Hung-Te Lin for your quick response.

Unfortunately I still get the same error message. When I have time, I'll dive into this more. Sorry for my late reaction, father of two 1 year olds....

Kind regards, Martin

I did not. I think it might have just been a hardware conflict.
