This bug was fixed in the package initramfs-tools - 0.125ubuntu3 --------------- initramfs-tools (0.125ubuntu3) yakkety; urgency=medium
* init: Revert Debian commit ab91306. Interpreting "rootdelay" as a static sleep is complete nonsense. (LP: #1615751) * scripts/local: Let rootdelay determine the wait-for-root timeout instead of the shell polling loop that comes after it, as we should never hit the latter in Ubuntu (where we require udev everywhere).
