[Bug 1768230] Re: Long time booting : Failed to connect to lvmetad. Falling back to device scanning.

[sonicsteve]

I should add that my system was an upgrade, using LVM with EXT4. I'm
honestly debating about backing up, blowing it up and installing fresh
without LVM, I'm not sure I see the advantage to using it.

Title:
  Long time booting : Failed to connect to lvmetad. Falling back to
  device scanning.

Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After choosing "Erase disk and install ubuntu" + "Use LVM with the new Ubuntu installation", the
  system is very slow to reboot.

  It shows the message : "WARNING:Failed to connect to lvmetad. Falling back to device scanning.",
  then waits 32 seconds, then continues as it should.

  I think this is a ubiquity bug, since the d-i based installer is not affected.
