Disk Utiliy error on Disk Repair - Unable to bootstrap transaction group cksum mismatch

When I try to Repair my Hard Disk on Disk Utility (command+R recovery mode) it shows this error:

My hard disk is encrypted with filevault 2 and Disk Utility seems to be unable to decrypt it.

Can I do something with bash? Thank you.

This happened to me last week as well. Restarted my late 2008 macbook which had a Filevault hard drive and would not recognize it. I replaced hard drive and started a fresh new install of lion. I used a external enclosure on the failed hard drive but I get the same error when trying to use disk utility on it. I have no idea what is going on. The drive will not mount.

That was sensible.

Those symptoms are consistent with a failing or failed hard drive.
