616689 is probably part of the problem. In my case, LVM runs on top of a raid0. Sometimes, the kernel freezes several minutes after an apparently normal boot. I have tried to improve the situation with the rootdelay and also timeout from grub. The rootdelay parameter helped, but the problem re-happened, unfortunately. I wonder if there is not some interference with grub.
As I am running two different systems (Mint not Window$ !) on the same computer, I could notice that: - the problem is less likely to happen if I reboot (the machine is warm) - the problem does not happen with Mint, kernel 2.6.24-28-generic, with boot&root partition is a native partition and home is on a raid1/LVM partition. I am sorry, but I do not know how I could be more helpful.
