Bug#788910: Systemd logics corrupted on USB UUID mount

[Thomas Korimort]

Package: systemd

Severity: critical

I am using Debian 8.0 Jessie on my RaspBerrry Pi 2. I do regular firmware updates with the script of Hexxeh (rpi-update). Yesterday my RaspBerry Pi 2 worked nicely. However, today i could not log in via SSH in our WLAN which happens sometimes. Thats why i rebooted it, expecting to be able to log in again via SSH in our WLAN. But i could not. So, i atttached my RPi2 to a keyboard and a TV and saw, that it was booting into emergency mode. It seems as if systemd, could not finish a job for mounting my USB hard drive which is mounted in my fstab via UUID identifier (maybe due to inconsistencies caused by occasional cold reset of my RPi2 with power-off method). During boot procedure systemd is trying to mount for 1:30 mins (start job is running) and then continues on failure to boot into emergency mode. I checked already the hard drive on another computer and it is working flawlessly. So, does anyone have a clue why suddenly this problem occurs? To me it seems that for some reason systemd's logic is destroyed and that is why all the other system services like WLAN are not up when it is booting into emergeny mode and my RPi2 is not available over the WLAN. So, how can i get this mess right again? Maybe i could temporarily remove the entry for my USB harddrive from fstab? Or how can i reset systemd in order to cancel its running jobs from previous starts and inconsistent configurations?

Greetings, Thomas Korimort.
