When trying to boot with systemd, I have found that problem with my setup:
I have a LVM volume group inside a luks partition (dmcrypt) and the boot process times out because it couldn't find the partition on the LVM vg.

So instead of using the bare lvm.service, I have modified it to run after cryptsetup.target but that is not enough. The new lvm service is run correctly after cryptsetup only haff the time. The other time, it fails with a timeout as previously because it is run before cryptsetup.

My "systemd"-fu is not big enough to be able to write a correct lvm.service and make this work.

I would like to request, either a fix for lvm.service or a new lvm-on-luks.service to fix this.
