Comments/Problems:
The installer complained that it could not find a suitable kernel to
install at the end of the "Install base System" section. I installed a
kernel manually using the debug shell, but when I tried to boot the
initramfs didn't contain any LVM components so I can't boot. I've tried
a couple of times, with the same result each time.
