Hi Freek,
Based on what you've put into your bug report, I don't think that this is the same problem. You indicate that it's happening with openSUSE 13.2, but I am (at least, according to /etc/issue) using 13.1.
In my case, the problem comes up almost as soon as one of the newer kernel versions tries to start one of my hard disk partitions. The boot process doesn't appear to end at that point -- it continues on until it eventually reaches a state where I have a message indicating that there are still two start jobs running (they're trying to start the partitions -- each of them has the LVM name for a hard disk partition associated with it).
Eventually, the wait for the start jobs times out and the boot fails at that point. As I indicated, I have fsk'ed both partitions and there don't appear to be any problems with the filesystems.
I'd be happy to investigate further, if needed. Just need a pointer on where to look.
Brendan

Hi all,
I'm having a bit of a problem with the newer 3.11.10-11 and 3.11.10-17
kernels. When I try to boot to either kernel, for some reason my disk partitions are not starting. I get a message indicating that there's a start job running for my disk partitions (I have two partitions, /boot and /), which eventually times out and the boot fails.
When I boot using the 3.11.10-7 kernel, everything starts with no
problems.
I am using LVM, both partitions are on the same physical disk. Not
sure what additional information would help debug the problem.
Any suggestions as to how to resolve this would be greatly
appreciated!
I've tried fsk'ing the partitions, but that seems to have no effect.

I am not sure it is the same kernel, but I use the kernel from the factory repository and have a similar problem. However after a few restarts the system mounts all my partitions and works OK. I opened a bug report https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=885986
I don't think the bug has to do with plymouth. This morning I did not press Esc and still not all partitions got mounted. 13.2 uses a new kernel like your 13.1 system. When I press Esc I see my system hanging performing something with lvm and later, after a timeout, I see messages about not having mounted all the partitions. The suggestion to set use_lvmetad = 0 in lvm.conf does not apply in my case, it is already set at that value. -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
