Bug Description
If you use lvm volumes for your partitions, crunchbang Statler won't boot after installation, because the package lvm2 is not installed.
You can work around the problem by after installation booting from the live cd
sudo bash
apt-get update
apt-get install lvm2
modprobe dm-mod
mount /dev/lvmvolume/root /mnt # replace by correct lvm volume
mount /dev/sdax /mnt/boot # when using lvm, boot is always a separate partition
# if you have partitions for usr, var,..., mount them as well under /mnt
mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc
chroot /mnt
apt-get update
apt-get install lvm2
exit
umount /mnt/proc
umount /mnt/dev
# umount partitions you mounted above
umount /mnt/boot
umount /mnt
reboot
