Cannot open SELinux encrypted disks

When I installed Fedora 10 I set the option to encrypt my file systems but now I can't open either of my two HDD's. I asks me for my password and gives me three options concerning the "remembering" of my password but when I put the password in nothing happens at all. Any ideas? Thanks.

Are the disks SELinux encrypted? Are you sure?

I'm pretty sure SELinux does not encrypt disks.

Probably cryptsetup with LUKS (Linux Unified Key Setup) extension.

Yes, sorry it is LUKS. How the heck do you open those disks? It asks for the password and then wont mount it. Annoying the crap out of me.
