Description Dmitry V. Levin 2019-12-23 03:57:54 MSK 
When installing into a LUKS partition on a UEFI hardware,
grub-install generates an incomplete /boot/efi/EFI/altlinux/grub.cfg file:

search.fs_uuid bd7feb40-5921-45d6-96d9-0f646f12956b root cryptouuid/f7fa2cedfd174a1cbe0b5ad7ed0c0776
set prefix=($root)'/boot/grub'
configfile $prefix/grub.cfg

As you can see, since the mandatory command
cryptomount -u f7fa2cedfd174a1cbe0b5ad7ed0c0776
that must precede search.fs_uuid is missing,
search.fs_uuid cannot find the root and the boot stops.

Note that grub-mkconfig does not have this issue, it adds cryptomount commands where appropriate.
