A me too.
I have /var and /home on two lvm partitions. /home only needs one of the two partitions, /var was recently extended and now needs both. It fails in most boots, more than 9 out of 10.
The comment from #34 also applies for me, no problem with the 3.0.0-13
kernel.
The thing I can add is that /var never gets activated. So I'd say that
at least one vgchange is not executed. If I manually vgscan and vgchange
and then exit the shell, the boot continues just fine.

Bug description:
The system is now unable to boot.
I had to boot on previous kernel 3.0.0.
Symptoms are boot freezes. When debugging, issuing a vgscan works ok.
doing the vgchange -a y just hangs. I need to reboot the system afterwards.
