Startup error: Volume group "q4os-desktop-vg" not found

Hi,
My computer boots fine into Q4OS but I get this error "Startup error: Volume group "q4os-desktop-vg" not found" at initial startup before I put my encryption password to unlock the disk.

Any way to get rid of that error?

And 2nd question (less important but just wondering), is there an easy way to change the key binding for opening the terminal? CTRL-T overlaps with tab creation in the file manager and with web browsers.

Re: Startup error: Volume group "q4os-desktop-vg" not found

figured out 2nd question,

as far as this volume group error, I see in /dev/mapper what I assume are my volume groups:

q4os--desktop--vg-root  q4os--desktop--vg-swap_1  sda5_crypt

I am not sure how to diagnose much further without probably screwing up my install. Found some files referencing q4os-desktop-vg in /run/udev/data/
