The image was more than twice as big, but it did the same thing on boot With quiet and rhgb removed, it got to the point where it said: Reached target System Initialization. Reached target Basic System. Then it stopped saying anything. At 150 seconds after boot, it said: dracut-initqueue[434]: Warning: dracut-initqueue timeout - start timeout scripts It sat there until 287 seconds after boot and started giving the same message once or twice a second until at 357 seconds it said: dracut-initqueue[434]: Warning: Could not boot. There are a couple of audit messages, then: Warning: /dev/mapper/vg0-root does not exist Warning: /dev/vg0/root does not exist Warning: /dev/vg0/swap does not exist Generationg "/run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt" Then it enters emergency mode. In journalctl, I see this and I think it is the problem: WARNING: PV W0e1Cx-ByMA-iRX6-OGxr-KfWC-zaUP-YXWgW5 on /dev/sdb8 was already found on sda8. WARNING: PV W0e1Cx-ByMA-iRX6-OGxr-KfWC-zaUP-YXWgW5 on /dev/md127 was already found on sda8. WARNING: PV W0e1Cx-ByMA-iRX6-OGxr-KfWC-zaUP-YXWgW5 prefers device /dev/sda8 because device was seen first. WARNING: PV W0e1Cx-ByMA-iRX6-OGxr-KfWC-zaUP-YXWgW5 prefers device /dev/md127 because device size is correct. Those repeat severeal times, then it says: Inactive '/dev/vg0/root' [13.20 GiB] inherit Inactive '/dev/vg0/swap' [2.00 GiB] inherit Inactive '/dev/vg0/home' [15.00 GiB] inherit Inactive '/dev/vg0/local' [1.00 GiB] inherit Inactive '/dev/vg0/big2' [29.00 GiB] inherit PARTIAL MODE.
