I would like to add that my setup uses UUID, for a long time, and LVM works with this (1), at least for / But for a separated /usr, it do not work anymore :( I get an emergency console and have to manually active my usr LV. (1) ie, in /etc/fstab : UUID=... / ext4 ... UUID=... /boot ext4 ... UUID=... /usr ext4 ... UUID=... /var ext4 ...
