Boot takes 3 minutes after installing Sundtek USB DVB-S2 driver
« am: Dezember 06, 2014, 08:08:44 Nachmittag »
I have recently updated to OpenSuse 13.2 (complete re-installation) on a 64 bit computer.
After I installed the Sundtek driver for my Sundtek USB DVB-S/S2, booting now takes
3 minutes. If I remove the driver, the boot process is again very fast. With
the same device on the same computer running OpenSuse 12.2, I had no problems, it
installed easily & had no problems.
Can anyone please help or advise what to do?

The boot.log contains:

The Sundtek driver was installed with:

# wget http://www.sundtek.de/media/sundtek_netinst.sh
# chmod 777 sundtek_netinst.sh
# sudo ./sundtek_netinst.sh

with no errors:

The problem seems to be related to something called systemd-udev-settle.service

We'll check it within the next days.... it's a systemd configuration issue if it happens.
Failure is a good thing! I'll fix it

Solved.

In openSUSE, there is something called lvm2-activation-generator
which is invoked by 2 service files: lvm2-activation-early.service and
lvm2-activation.service.

I have no idea why installing the Sundtek driver causes a problem with these but as I don't use LVM, I've followed the advice to mask these two services and now my boot time is back to a few seconds.

The commands to disable them (as root):

systemctl mask lvm2-activation-early.service
systemctl mask lvm2-activation.service
