I switched to systemd (Version: 189-3) today. I've got an issue with mounting the swap-partition. It fails with a timeout after 90 Seconds:

If I delete the line for the swap-partition in /etc/fstab everything just works fine. Only swap isn't working.
This task depends upon

Linux version 3.5.3-1-ARCH
systemd 189

I just made the move to systemd (mixed system) & have what appears to be the exact same issue except it is occurring for my /var partition. NOTE: This is an LVM partition but I am not sure that is the issue as my root partition (LVM as well) mounts fine via UUID.

Found the same /var issue reported for Mandrake (http://www.digipedia.pl/usenet/thread/18920/216970/).

I tried posting to the forums first but had no response after about 1 week. (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1166574#p1166574)

Attached is a debug log file from systemd.

I just edited my fstab for the /var partition changing the UUID to /dev/mapper/vgArchie-lvolVar and everything works fine now. I am not sure why this works as the UUID is correct as it works fine when using sysV and the UUID's for my other volumes work fine as-is.

Is this still a problem?

Please retry with lvm2 from testing.

Hmm, it works, even with the package lvm2 in Core. I don't know why, but it seems that my UUID from my swap partition changed after moving to systemd. I changed the UUID in my fstab today, so it works now.
