Since I have not see a thread here with this warning I wanted to post this.

As of 5/7/2013 bionic bootstrap does not work with 98.72.22. It will cause an encryption error and put you in a boot loop. You can use safestrap with 98.72.22 to create your back ups and flash zips.

If you do flash bootstrap and end up in a boot loop you must flash the 98.72.22 fxz and re-root.
 
I'll at least verify this as well... I should have posted this two days ago when I first found out about it when I also experienced it.. I had hoped to first find a work-around before posting.

On Sunday, I must have re-tried at least 4-6 times ( lost count ) various things and all ended up with the same result. I will add one additional bit of info that I saw... the internal SDCARD partition kept getting corrupted and was unreadable after each attempt and needed to be reformated.

The only upside... I've finally switched over to SafeStrap. I'd been needing to do this since moving to the Bionic with Rom Manager and Bootstrap being so much less useful than before for me.

I tried messing around for a while trying to get it to work but it is beyond my expertise.
