I: The initramfs will attempt to resume from /dev/dm-6

The system doesn't boot after this:

done.

After changing the resume policy to 'none' and updating initramfs, the system will boot, but with a long delay. There are also now very long delays to ssh logins.

I've attached the syslog from the boot.
