Boot fails waiting for /dev/disk/by-uuid

[ole.tange]

The system is stuck waiting 90 seconds for the /dev/disk/by-uuid/* devices to show up.

When dropping me to a shell, they do exist.

Forcing the system to fsck (by removing power) makes no difference.

After rebooting 1-5 times it suddenly completes booting. So it seems it might be a race condition.

= Workaround =

If I boot once in recovery mode, then the next boot will mostly complete just fine. OK as a workaround, but a horrible solution.

I can even just run `systemctl reboot` from recovery mode - no need to boot fully. Running `reboot`, however, does not work.

I tried:

* update-grub: no change

* rootdelay=3 in /etc/default/grub, followed by update-grub: no change

Did a kernel update or the upgrade to a newer Ubuntu release resolve this problem?
