Hi,
I'm sorry, but this does not solve the problem.
The true cause is not that udev doesn't create the "real" (read /dev/sdX for my
case) devices in the default 30 seconds (it creates them, until the 30 seconds
expire), but the fact that, by the time the /boot/62-lvm2.sh script is run, the
specific external USB device (in my case, /dev/sdb and its partitions) is not
yet "seen" by the USB subsystem (and, therefore, neither by udev), and, as
such, cannot activate the LVM volumes present on that specific device.
By the time the boot process reaches the "Waiting for the root device to
appear..." stage (when the udev_timeout value kicks in), the USB subsystem has
finished enumerating the devices, udev has created the devices in /dev
(including /dev/sdb and its partitions), but it's already too late, since the
LVM volumes will not be activated (so, no
/dev/NAME_OF_LVM_VOLUME/NAME_OF_LOGICAL_VOLUME(S) files present).
If needed, I can go into more detail with the description of the problem.
Cheers,
George Iosif
