Bug Description
Wily, using multipath-tools 0.5.0-7ubuntu2
Installing Ubuntu on LVM over multipath disks fails to boot, falls to the recovery console from systemd (not the initramfs console).
This is likely to be because of a race between LVM and multipath -- if LVM tries to pick up the device and locks it before multipath-tools can do its job.

Tried to extract as much information as possible from this system while in the recovery console.
Note, this does not happen at all when installing directly to the multipath device, only with LVM on top of multipath.
