[Solved] 'Activating LVM2 groups' problems at boot

I managed to get LVM2 to work with this guide LVM - ArchWiki. I also use system-config-lvm (from AUR) and everything worked ok before fist reboot.

Every boot I get these errors:

:: Activating LVM2 groups
    Couldn't find device with uuid 'bDwTef-fL08-cZkk-wHGs-EL47-RGoP-HNOsW1'
    Couldn't find device with uuid 'bV1W6F-F8p3-lPlf-1aJH-WNoN-ePDs-c1ubHn'

    Refusing activation of partitial LV ArchFuture. Use --partitial to override.

After boot /dev/mapper does not contain VolGroup00-ArchRules or VolGroup00-ArchFuture. I have to manually everytime activate partitions.

vgchange -ay VolGroup00
    2 logical volume(s) in volume group "VolGroup00" now active

After that both partitions works ok.

Any ideas how to fix that I don't have to manually always active partitions?

Are those UUIDs valid? Use blkid to check them.

Thank you for fast reply.

blkid 
/dev/sda1: UUID="70c7375d-409f-4536-806e-648201ebf3a9" TYPE="ext4" 
/dev/sda2: UUID="329f4e64-c239-4107-8fa9-8db102db1f1e" TYPE="ext4" 
/dev/sda5: TYPE="swap" UUID="0e574a8b-57b5-4eb6-a72f-0b5462377cff" 
/dev/sdb1: UUID="bDwTEf-fL08-cZkk-wHGs-EL47-RGoP-HNOsW1" TYPE="lvm2pv" 
/dev/sdc1: UUID="bV1W6F-F8p3-lPlf-1aJH-WNoN-ePDs-c1ubHn" TYPE="lvm2pv"

I use sda2, sdb1 and sbc1 with LVM so those UUID should be ok?

Problem was that /dev/sdb1 and /deb/sdc1 are external (USB) hard drives.
