Public bug reported:

I'm trying to install a PPC64EL node with Xenial via MAAS 1.9.2 using
Juju 1.25.5 and it seems to be failing due to a possible multipath
issue.  The node is setup in maas with a default single partition.  The
boot logs show:

  Begin: Running /scripts/init-premount ... done.
  Begin: Mounting root file system ... Begin: Running /scripts/local-top ...   
lvmetad is not active yet, using direct activation during sysinit
    Volume group "mpath0" not found
    Cannot process volume group mpath0
  done.

and then multiple repeats of:

  Begin: Waiting for root file system ... Begin: Running /scripts/local-block 
...   lvmetad is not active yet, using direct activation during sysinit
    Volume group "mpath0" not found
    Cannot process volume group mpath0
  done.

To finally fail with:

  Gave up waiting for root device.  Common problems:
   - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
     - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
     - Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
   - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
  ALERT!  /dev/mapper/mpath0-part2 does not exist.  Dropping to a shell!
  Rebooting automatically due to panic= boot argument

$ dpkg-query -W maas
maas    1.9.2+bzr4568-0ubuntu1~trusty1
$ dpkg-query -W juju-core
juju-core       1.25.5-0ubuntu1~14.04.2~juju1

Kernel version booting on the PPC64EL node is Linux version
4.4.0-21-generic.

Please let me know what further information you require to debug this.

Thanks,
Brad
