** Description changed: - When I try to install Ubuntu Precise Pangolin using LVM for my - filesystems, it gives me this warning: + 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.
