Gordon, can you try systemd v219 from experimental? It has some tricks to suppress output from other jobs while a password prompt is running. I dunno how well that works, though so having someone with such a setup test this would be appreciated.
Hi Michael, 219-5 is MUCH MUCH better. If I type the wrong password it's a bit glitchy (prints multiple prompts and starts a service to dispatch password prompts but then holds after a spurious prompt or two). I didn't wait to see if there was a hidden timeout. I got the system booted in one try which is a first.
If v219 works reasonably well (without plymouth), we might consider backporting those patches (depending on how invasive they are).
So far so good here. Best, -Gordon M.
