Do we know why this happens in some cases? It'd be better if we could only sleep when we know there's a chance that the partitions may be available after that.
I'm not sure what you're asking; are you asking for a test on whether we need to sleep? That's sfdisk -l, as I do in the script before sleeping
My concern is that sfdisk -l returning non-zero may not be a very good indication that we should sleep. It will return non-zero on any error and I expect most errors to not go away after a 30 seconds sleep, in which case we'd be delaying l-m-c's exit unnecessarily. That may not be a big deal, though.
