The lvm2 hook for initramfs-tools is specifically looking for the mapper
path, such as root=/dev/mapper/vg00-root as opposed to the canonical path,
root=/dev/vg00/root
It regex's out /dev/mapper and then splits on - to get the group and

into the initrd myself. Since everything in /bin is a symlink to it,
this is critical.
