Try what I just did (on multiboot host gx28c with 8 or more volume lines in eash installation's fstab; 'fdisk -l | grep /dev/sda | wc -l' produces 24 on this host): 1-have fstab entries for openSUSE 13.1 and TW mount using the form LABEL= 2-in TW's fstab, misspell the volume label for 13.1 3-boot TW 4-when the waiting for dev-disk-by\x2dlabel-<LABEL>.device (failing volume's label) start job appears, right away CAD, and shutdown will proceed normally for a short time, after which the waiting for dev-disk-by\x2dlabel-<LABEL>.device previously experienced will institute a similar delay before reboot completes 5-boot 13.1 6-restore TW's fstab to have correct volume label spellings next boot I repeated on same host using Fedora 20 and 21 to get similar delays. For both TW and F21 I also tried letting init proceed into emergency shell, fixing fstab, then CAD, whereupon reboot proceeded quickly for both. To reach Fedora 20 emergency shell after a very long wait (>3 minutes here on 2.8GHz 32 bit single core P4), include a misspelled root volume after LABEL= on cmdline.
