Sure. I spent the night doing this on a second box here ... same problems ... Kernel 3.14.2 lately ... but when I chose an older one from grub2 it leads to the same waiting system. to explain a bit more: the desktop here boots from an SSD, no RAID or LVM for the main OS. The VGs/LVs are on mdadm-mirrors and contain data only, nothing crucial for booting. Many moving parts: dracut, kernel, lvm2, mdadm(?), systemd ... I worked with exactly this box around 10hrs ago and it booted fine then. I will check genlop what I upgraded at night ... Got to eat now and take a rest ... I "love" to fix issues on a saturday :-P *sigh* Thanks, Stefan
