[Bug 922438] [NEW] Installation with preseeding gives warnings when /boot is on LVM

[Sgifford]

Public bug reported:

Hello,

I'm using preseeding to automatically install Precise onto a pure LVM
system, with root and /boot on LVM. LVM booting is officially supported
by Grub 2, and works fine as far as I can tell.

When I'm installing, I get one warning about having /boot on LVM. I also
get two warnings about not being able to stat the /dev/mapper devices,
but they work when I select "Retry".  Perhaps it's a timing problem.

Despite these warnings, the system installs fine, and boots fine after
installation.

I asked a related question in a forum post, and you can see screenshots
there:
