Ubuntu 14 - Grub "The disk drive for /boot is not ready yet or not present"

This looks like a race condition in which the LVM volumes are still not present when fstab is parsed.

I wanted to ask if there is any way to either load LVM earlier or let the OS wait longer for the LVM volumes to "exist" before try and mount them

I attached the error message at boot time: Rebooting the VM ends up booting after some retries.
