Comment 0 for bug 1819488

Doing a clean install of ubuntu server 18.10 alt install, with gpt -> mdraid -> lvm -> btrfs. Installer completes successfully, grub-install completes successfully, but upon first boot I receive a grub "lvmid disk not found" error and thrown into the recovery console.
I know this setup is complex and perhaps not ideal, that aside, I've had it work in the past without issues or modification after installer.

I have tried the follow, all resulting in the same lvmid not found error in grub:
- making a separate /boot LV with ext4 instead of btrfs
- preloading lvm/mdraid modules in /etc/default/grub
- using raid5 only (not mixing raid1/5 for PV)
- setting root=UUID=xxx in /etc/default grub

Also, a little background as to why I'm doing the partitions/raid/lvm as I am can be found here: https://serverfault.com/questions/272776/how-to-do-the-equivalent-of-synology-hybrid-raid-on-linux-myself

Setup is as follows:
=== /ets/fstab
/dev/mapper/vg1-root / btrfs noatime,subvol=@ 0 1
/dev/mapper/vg1-root /home btrfs noatime,subvol=@home 0 2
/dev/mapper/vg1-swap none swap sw 0 0
