Restore fstab with correct UUID so that I can boot with crypto_LUKS partition

I ended up with this error upon boot:

Code:

GRUB loading..
Welcome to GRUB!

error: no such cryptodisk found.
error: disk 'cryptouuid/6e0637...' not found.
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue> _

And when I boot live USB and run `sudo lsblk -f` - I get this:

Code:

NAME                        FSTYPE            FSVER  UUID
...
sda
  - sda1             
  - sda4                    crypto_LUKS       1           6e0637...
    - luks-6e0637...        ext4                1.0       082f44...
...

And when I do `cat etc/fstab` of the original Linux installation - I get only this:

Code:

UUID=082f44...        /       ext4        acl,user_xattr        0       1

It looks like it's searching for the wrong UUID ...
So - does that mean that if I restore fstab file - I'll be able to boot? ... And if so - what should I put there?

not enough info.
Do you have another disk too?
where is grub installed?
what is your boot device?

"Restore fstab with correct UUID so that I can boot with crypto_LUKS partition" - are you sure that the former will fix the latter? Have you correctly described your problem, or have you described only what you think is the way to a solution?

edit: this wouldn't happen to be a continuation of your previous thread?
