Can those who hit the bug please check if the patch in #802626 fixes the issue? (basicaly it consists in adding a --noudevsync parameter to the vgchange command in /lib/udev/rules.d/85-lvm2.rules. Then you need to regenerate the initramfs with update-initramfs -u) If it does we can probably

Yes, as mentioned in #6, adding the --noudevsync parameter fixes the delay for me. Now, I wonder if it is just me, or also others have the same experience. IMHO, this is important to know because the bug title in 802626 is about those who have the root filesystem outside LVM and all the rest in

Another little note. I made a lot of testing in the last days. I have a feeling that in extremely rare cirumstances also 3.0.0-13 hangs at boot (happened once in about 100 test boots) Only, on my machine 3.0.0-13 hangs 1% of the boots (which goes unnoticed), while -14 does systematically. --

Ok, I think I am probably running into bug Bug #802626 or Bug #818177 What happens is that if I add --noudevsync to the lvm2 udev rule in lib/udev and then I update the initramfs the delay disappears. Thus adding lvm2 and udev to the bug. However, I still wonder why I am running into this. 1)

Experiencing this hang on a DELL E6500 where I am using LVM, after ubuntu pushed the 3.0.0-14 kernel, the -13 kernel did not have the issue. But I do have the root filesystem on LVM. So the problem seems to be there even if rootfs is on a logical LVM volume. The --noudevsync in udev lvm2 rules
