My system keeps booting into the live image of Pop!_OS 22.04 rather than my encrypted partition. I ran boot-repair-disk but the system keeps going to the install image. I verified that the bios is pointing to the correct disk at boot and I verified that my data is still in the encrypted partition.
Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: I found the fix. I was able to dig out a System76 article that fixed me right up. See below.
In that case you should be able to rule out borked boot priority.
I’d be looking at the bootloader, next. You don’t mention having multiple boot options, but it could be defaulting to the wrong one for some reason. Or because the one you want is unable to boot despite being otherwise fine.
I never multiboot (had enough of that pain years ago). I’ll look into the bootloader but I assumed that Boot Repair would have corrected that. It might be that it didn’t see the bit pointing towards the rescue partition as a problem.
You still have a bootloader, even if you only have one OS. And if you do have a recovery image as you say, you are multi-booting.
I recall the ability to boot from an encrypted partition requiring some additional config for grub, but I see no reason for boot repair not to account for that.
If you use some other bootloader, I’ve no experience.
