Hi Andrei,

Thanks for this tip! My kernel config did indeed miss the CONFIG_FHANDLE option. After recompiling the kernel, the devices where automatically detected by systemd!

Does systemd log a message somewhere about this missing kernel option? Did I miss the relevant notice in the log messages?

Anyway thanks for you help.
