Could you please check the labels of the linux partitions? e2label /dev/sda5 e2label /dev/sda7

Another point is that /dev/sda6 is a LVM physical volume. Maybe the kernel or initrd are missing support for that?

/dev/sda5 was an unformatted piece of the disk that was left there I do not know why. When I retried the installation, I removed the swap and all empty nonformated partitions keeping only the first two partitions. Installation worked the next time around.
I have redone this installation and it has worked. Got some other problems like sound not working. Will get back to ask questions when needed.
Regards,
Antonio
