[linux-lvm] 'vgscan' at boot-up

I'm using lvm2-2.00.15 and device-mapper-1.00.17 on a Slackware (x86)
system, with a 2.6.9 kernel and udev-026. I've created a volume
group and a logical volume without any trouble, but the file system
I built on the volume won't mount at boot-up. That's apparently
because the 'vgscan' program run from the system initialization
script does not find an volume groups. After the system boots,
'vgscan' works fine. I can get the file system mounted by putting
/sbin/vgscan 2>/dev/null
sleep 10
/sbin/vgchange -ay
/sbin/mount -a
in 'rc.local'. Does anyone have a idea why 'vgscan' would fail
in the sytem initialization script, but succeed in 'rc.local'?
