I'm trying to understand what a system is timing out waiting for a device in /etc/fstab when a simple "mount -av" will succeed. To reach systemd, initramfs has already mounted the device as the base layer to an overlay mount used as the root file system, so it's definitely ready to use in the Linux kernel. In /etc/fstab, fsck is set to 0. What condition does systemd wait for that could be timing out on a device that's already mounted?
It waits for the device to become known to udev, to be announced to systemd (tag "systemd") and not having SYSTEMD_READY=0 property.
