Title:
  Booting from LVM takes me to initramfs prompt

Status in lvm2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I tried to upgrade to 13.10 a couple weeks back and had the same
  problem, so I reinstalled from 13.04 and then upgraded again today.
  I'm not sure if this is an lvm2 problem or a grub problem.

  When I boot, I get to the initramfs system with the following alert:
  ALERT! /dev/mapper/ubuntu-root does not exist

  I do an ls -la /dev/mapper to see what there and there's another
  volume there.  I then do the ls -la again and then all the volumes
  show up.  I exit initramfs by typing exit and I'm good to go, i.e. my
  system works fine.
