@xirius Well, I guess that's a different problem. Sorry, I can't help w/ debugging that, but I'd suggest you to track/compare boot times w/ a increasing number of paths, or from different adapters/storage systems, until you rule out the slow-down factor. -- You received this bug notification

Hi Mathieu, I did some research for the commit mentioned in comment #10. Its description clarifies (how/why) it solves this problem, and even others we would probably hit later (e.g., after booting, SCSI disks added/removed re-trigerring udev rules, and then involving multipathd). It's been

Well, not necessarily. The swap issue is the same as the rootfs one-- at some point multipath times out, and other init jobs would also timeout trying to bring up the swap (which can't be identified from the UUID) whereas the rootfs got brought up on a single path using the UUID. The debdiff

Well, not necessarily. The swap issue is the same as the rootfs one Ah, yes, you're right. I was thinking with the assumption that the workaround/patch for the timeout was in place. Indeed, if it's not in place, there'll be no swap nor anything multipath'ed at all. In the particular case the
