I can confirm this on dapper. I tried to solve it by adding
/sbin/usplash_write "TIMEOUT 60"
to /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top/usplash (just after the sleep 1 after starting usplash), but this didn't work. And it clearly doesn't take 60 seconds to mount. I probably added it in the wrong file though. I'll try a bit more and post results.
