Great, the rootfs is found and mounted.

Notice this setup (LVM on multipath) hits LP #1540401, 
but non-LVM on multipath doesn't, as originally reported.

        The disk drive for /boot is not ready yet or not present.
        keys:Continue to wait, or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual 
recovery

        keys: S

And the system boots successfully:

        # mount | grep ' / '
        /dev/mapper/mauricfo4--vg-root on / type ext4 (rw,errors=remount-ro)

        # pvdisplay | grep Name
          PV Name               /dev/HARDDISK
          VG Name               mauricfo4-vg

        # multipath -l
        0QEMU    QEMU HARDDISK   trustyroot dm-0 QEMU    ,QEMU HARDDISK   
        size=32G features='0' hwhandler='0' wp=rw

        `-+- policy='round-robin 0' prio=-1 status=enabled
          `- 0:0:1:0 sdb 8:16 active undef running

Notice the LVM PV senses the multiple symlinks problem
(due to the spaces in the WWIDs) but this can be fixed 
(if desired) on a later update,
and does not occur w/ user_friendly_names.

The system *is* bootable, and the device-mapper table is correct
(LVM stacked on multipath devices):

        root@mauricfo4:~# dmsetup table | sort
        0QEMU    QEMU HARDDISK   trustyroot: 0 67108864 multipath 0 0 2 1

        mauricfo4--vg-swap_1: 0 2834432 linear 252:3 63752192

The boot problem is fixed.
