I don't use an initramfs but neither do i have a separate /usr. Still, lvm2 hung after the udev upgrade. So it probably did _not_ search the old location. Though, after pressing ^C, lvm2 terminated and some fall back mechanism kicked in and the system worked just fine - i.e. was able to mount the lvm volumes. I'm actually not sure what that means (or which "system" was responsible for that fall back). Sascha
