I've tried but have been unable to reproduce this. I'm not entirely sure that my environment is equivalent though, so let me explain what I did and if you have suggestions for other things to try, I can give it a shot.

I created a brand new kvm vm x86_64 w/ a 40G disk, 512MB. I grabbed the lucid-beta1 64bit server iso and did a fresh install. When it came time to partition the disk, I created one VG on the PV. I created 6 LVs on the VG:

root -> /
home -> /home
opt -> /opt
tmp -> /tmp
var -> /var
varlog -> /var/log

with various sizes ranging from about 5G to 10G apiece. Everything installed and booted perfectly fine. No hang, all filesystems mounted correctly. In fact, boot was so blazingly fast I blinked and it was done.

I updated all packages and rebooted about 10 times. I never had a hang or failure to mount any partitions. Boot never took longer than a second or two. I added --debug to mountall as in orgoj's comment #26 and mountall-stderr.log was never anything but empty. mountall-stdout.log didn't have any indications of problems (on the contrary, it looked quite reasonable).

Is this a reasonable test of the reported issue? Is there anything else I can try to get a better reproduction of the bug?
