What rules should be used? I don't see a /dev/md directory, I

created, nothing in /dev/md/ directory and none of the md126 devices ?
You then get the timeout.
Please check the device-mapper status.
My guess is that device-mapper gets in the way (as it probably will be
activated from udev, too), and blocks the devices when mdadm is trying
to access them.
