At boot, I'm seeing this message: Sep 13 13:26:31 krejzi systemd-gpt-auto-generator[62]: Failed to verify GPT partition /dev/block/8:8: No such file or directory Sep 13 13:26:31 krejzi systemd[1]: /lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-gpt-auto-generator exited with exit status 1. The trick is, I don't even have any GPT partitioned HD's. /dev/block/8:8 exists though on a booted system, and is a symlink to ../sda8, which is my root partition. I believe that generator is ran early (before udev) and that udev is responsible for creating those symlinks.

Oh, and forgot to note that this is an initramfs-less system.
I can confirm, also an initramfs-less system. I have `CONFIG_DEVTMPFS` and `CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT` set in my kernel config in case that matters.
I'm also having this issue on two initramfs-less systems
This is a harmless error, if you're not relying on systemd to mount your GPT partitions automatically. Changing priority according to that. Fixed in http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/commit/?id=3db604b90.
