Comment 21 for bug 1396213

I experience the same symptoms with the mainline kernel.

Note, if the problem is really with initrd scripts, then probably the kernel version doesn't matter much. On the other hand, as I see, lvm2 initrd scripts haven't changed since Trusty, which would suggest it's a kernel bug, after all. Hard to pinpoint.

Either way, I suspect one of my hard disks (/dev/sda, Maxtor) initializes late, and that might cause the problem. Still interesting that older kernels bother to wait for it and properly activate the vmhost-vg.
