Bug Description

If you use lvm on lsblk use the NAME which return dm0 (root) than it try to find /dev/dm0 (root) which is wrong..

instead I recommend to use 'KNAME'.

Here's the patch attached.

Thank you for taking the time to make Ubuntu better.

Have you encountered an error due to curtin not using KNAME over name (which IIUC is KNAME without the /dev prefix)?
If so, please explain the situation where your attached patch fixes the issue.

Thanks.

yes I did, with a custom image of debian Jessie 8.0 with LVM schema.

When it tried to fetch the dm device NAME output the following : "/dev/dm0 (root)"

as you can see it failed because I cannot found the device dm0 (root) which is obviously wrong..
