Anyone else seeing this? I'm getting dropped to emergency mode during boot since my last F16 yum update. It included a kernel update, but I'm not certain yet that it is the kernel, because it's not 100% reproducible. Issuing a ^D gets me to GDM and the system appears to work. At the console there are no particular messages (occasionally an alsa warning), the only real clue I can find is this in dmesg:
[ 113.821947] systemd[1]: Job dev-disk-by\x2duuid-87b66172\x2dcd62\x2d498a\x2da33b\x2d621948ce37ea.device/start timed out.

Not sure how to further troubleshoot this.
That alsa warning, but doesn't seem relevant: [ 351.117493] ALSA sound/usb/clock.c:228 4:3:1: cannot set freq 16000 to ep 0x86 [ 351.254642] ALSA sound/usb/clock.c:243 current rate 290 is different from the runtime rate 24000 [ 351.263413] ALSA sound/usb/mixer.c:866 5:2: cannot get min/max values for control 2 (id 5)
