there is surely something wrong, all i wanted to point out is that it is
not GRUB since your boot progresses to a point far beyond GRUB. 
there were likely changes in lvm or initramfs-tools that cause your
issues, i would suggest looking at launchpad for related bugreports,
there might be workarounds.
