I've since found that the serial console on a 40 MHz 68040 sometimes fails in the same way. The timeout for 'dev-%i.device' seems to be covered by DefaultTimeoutStartSec. https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-system.conf.html#DefaultTimeoutStartSec= So I set this to 180s in /etc/systemd/system.conf and haven't seen the problem since.

When the next debootstrap becomes available I'll test again. --
