If your installation is similar to mine, there's a warning at boot when 
lvm2 first starts and tries to write that it's starting to its log file.  
Since my normal /var/log is an lvm2 logical volume, lvm2's log can't be 
kept there, so I have it pointed at someplace on /, but / is still 
mounted read-only at the point lvm2 starts, so writing to its log file 
doesn't work at that point.  It would later (if something should suddenly 
go wrong with lvm2 and it should need to log that), but not at the point 
it normally starts in the boot process.

I could try to figure out a way around that, reordering the services so / 
is mounted rw before lvm starts, or some other hack, but I've not done so 
yet.  I know what the warning is and that it's normal at that point given 
my config, so I simply don't worry about it.
