How about:
if $(ps | grep -q usb-storage); then
problem=1
fi
This way only boxes with usb-storage are affected by the booting
delay and not all the boxes with for example an usb input device
like an usb mouse.
I just verified my "ps...usb-storage"-code: works as intented and
booting from usb works fine then.
It won't work reliably because only the usb host driver is loaded once
udevsettle exits (your screenshot at http://grml.org/initramfs/ shows
this quite well). I'm leaning towards the rootdelay/rootdelaydev +
documentation solution (see my mail to the BR a few minutes ago).
Let's see what maks says...
+if [ ${slumber} -gt 0 ]; then
+ log_begin_msg "Waiting for additional devices..."
The log_begin_msg call fails (don't ask me why, had no time for
further debugging and locating this bug costed me some minutes
already) and booting failed due to use of 'set -e' in the script
then. Changing the "log_begin_msg" to "echo" fixed the problem.
Mea culpa...the udev script needs to source /scripts/functions at the
beginning to be able to use the log_begin_msg function
