Sure I could, but I think I already avoided that by putting filter = [ "a|^/dev/mapper/nfs2$|", "r/.*/" ] in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf (and propagated that into the initramfs). I was bitten by such things previously, it took some time to find out what's up... Anyway, now the boot says (excluding some irrelevant kernel messages, but none during the sleep): libdevmapper: libdm-common.c(462): Created /dev/mapper/nfs done. Sleeping for #567019...done.
