My AMD system with a fresh load of 15.0 - all files systems are ext4 - no LVM
When the reboot after the update - neither the old or new kernel would go past the running “starting the Monitor of LVM2 Mirrors” no time limit
After 15 minutes I reset the computer and booted a Opensuse 15 Live image ( I like the GeckoLinux live disks as they have MATE and Xfce as default live )
I went to this path and deleted the 3 LVM2 links
:/etc/systemd/system/sysinit.target.wants # ll
total 0

: rm lvm2*
and rebooted and no more LVM2 hang
I have no LVM volumes - why would it keep trying to run?
