Yes ... but I still don't fully get what services to enable to get it set up correctly. lvmetad yes or no, various systemd-generators ... to me it looks a bit confusing.

Commenting the fstab-lines containing LVs didn't help to skip this step so far (seems there is this LVM-systemd-generator called) >> Removing the "real_init" from the kernel line chooses openrc and also >> leads to a hanging boot. >> >> So a next step seems to comment the LVs from fstab and check if it boots >> then. > > Or enable interactive boot where you can press "I" to have every service ask > if it needs to be started.

Additional scratching: even editing the grub2-line doesn't reliably chose openrc for booting. Oh my ... It would help to somehow set a smaller timeout for this start job to at least get into emergency mode sooner. Right now it waits forever ("no limit"). S
