Bug Description
I manually created my partitions before installing Mythbuntu in the following pattern:
/dev/sda1 100MiB ext3 /boot
/dev/sda2 2048MiB swap swap
/dev/sda3 extended
/dev/sda5 10GiB ext4 /
/dev/sda6 140GiB lvm2
/dev/sdd1 730GiB lvm2
Created a volume group data_archive from both /dev/sda6 and /dev/sdd1.
/dev/mapper/
During installation, I experienced Bug 368318 on the first attempt, but my second attempt succeeded. (I will note the difference in the other bug)
After installation completed successfully, I rebooted the machine. It did not boot completely because the checkfs.sh failed, noting an inability to locate the lvm2 partition.
At the maintenance prompt, I am able to perform "mount -a" correctly.
Further, once I disabled the checkfs.sh (to see if I could get it to boot completely without it), the mountall command failed to locate the /home partition, giving the error:
"* Mounting local filesystems... mount: special device /dev/disk/
<...> is the correct UUID of the lvm partition, but it's too long to type by hand.
This appears to be a failure of the boot process to perform vgchange -a before attempting to check or mount the drives.

Yup, same here. I have to manually do a sudo lvmchange -ay before any LVM partitions can be mounted.
