+ When I try to install Ubuntu Precise Pangolin with my filesystems on LVM
+ volumes, it gives me this warning:
  
-   Could not stat device /dev/mapper/hostname-root - No such file or
+   Could not stat device /dev/mapper/hostname-root - No such file or
  directory.
  
  If I select "Retry", everything works.
  
  It appears that the LVs are created, but their entries in "/dev/mapper"
  don't exist yet when the rest of the system tries to use them.
  
+ After I retry, the entries do exist and so everything works.
+ 
+ An easy fix seems to be adding a short delay after creating the LVs, so
+ they are ready by the time other parts of the install process begin.
+ 
  I will attach a short video with some more information, along with the
  fix that worked for me.
