actually, I get the exact same error message whenever I boot up, it would
seem as though you can safely ignore it... (dont quote me on that :)

I would stay start off with a fresh kernel source, and compile in LVM

Has this ever worked with a previous kernel version? or are you
starting to use LVM from scratch?
Finally, what exactly are you typing into the console to setup the
lvm volume?
