** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1396213 LVM VG is not activated during system boot -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to lvm2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/995645 Title: udevd: timeout: killing 'watershed sh -c '/sbin/lvm vgscan; /sbin/lvm vgchange -a y'' Status in lvm2 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Boot takes a long time during which the console reports: [ 100.224928] device-mapper: table: 252:40: snapshot: Snapshot cow pairing for exception table handover failed udevd[617]: timeout: killing 'watershed sh -c '/sbin/lvm vgscan; /sbin/lvm vgchange -a y'' [1148] udevd[617]: 'watershed sh -c '/sbin/lvm vgscan; /sbin/lvm vgchange -a y'' [1148] terminated by signal 9 (Killed) Then the boot stalls waiting to mount /usr and I have to use M to manually recover. When I get into the recovery shell, a read from /dev/rootvol_tmp/ubuntu_usr returns 0 bytes and I have to run "vgchange -a y" before I can get a read from that LV to return data. At that point I can drop out of the recovery shell and boot will continue.
