Public bug reported:
xubuntu 18.04.1
After standard installation with LVM, I created further LVs, namely for
/usr, /var, /tmp and /home.
The boot delays about 30 seconds waiting for /usr, this delay is caused by
wait-for-root.
Also, the /usr volume can not be defined by its label in fstab, it fails to
find it at boot time.
It seems both problem are caused because wait-for-root is called before
the /usr LV is activated, adding "vgchange -a y" in "init" just before
calling mountfs for /usr allows the boot to complete if /usr is defined
by its label, and eliminates the delay if it is pointed by the
/dev/mapper/XXXX device.
