What AES mode are you using? If I remember correctly cbc is the default, but
maybe your are using ecb. In any case, I think you should add the correct module
to your initrd. (Try to add both, just to find out if the error is there)

Other point, I spent one whole evening looking for a solution about a failing
boot, I installed a clear fedora in a partition on the same disk to try to
recover my system and then I gave up. The morning after the epiphany, the
keyboard was set with the american layout, and I'm using an italian one.

I dont think it's your case, coz you have different errors, but ... ;-)
