Try use /dev/mapper/volume-root instead.
I'm not sure why, but I recently had a similar problem where using
/dev/Debian/root didn't work but /dev/mapper/Debian-root did (even though
once the boot is over, /dev/Debian/root can be used just fine, it looks
like the alternate name is constructed later).
