[Bug 1208401] [NEW] saucy server lvm installations fail to boot

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

The lvm installations of amd64 and i386 images fail to boot and drop to
initramfs shell  with the following error messages with the images of
20130803 onwords:

Alert: /dev/mapper/utah--12256--saucy--server--i386--vg--root does not
exist. Dropping to shell.


When compared to the earlier good images, i noticed libdevmapper-event is not getting installed in the failed ones as part of lvm2 dependency. Install log is attached from a failed installation.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install utah using
   sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:utah/stable
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install utah

2. Now run
sudo -u utah -i run_utah_tests.py -i /path/to/saucy-server-amd64.iso -p lp:ubuntu-test-cases/server/preseeds/lvm.preseed lp:ubuntu-test-cases/server/runlists/lvm.run -x /etc/utah/bridged-network-vm.xml

3. It could be noted that the vm will fail to boot after the
installation.
