I have been trying to get systemd to boot, but I have run into several problems and need some help. I am using everything but /boot as lvm's, with a separate user partition. I had to copy systemd to /sbin because the initrd looks for the realinit too soon, but that is maybe another matter. I had set confirm_spawn=y in the kernel command line, but it only waits a short time and then says assuming positive response and tries to continue -- how can I get it to wait for me? Also, even so, it died on mounting of my lvms, saying there was some kind of timeout and came to a complete halt (maybe it was a shell, but no prompt) after all those failed, so I could do nothing much. Openrc works fine, but I was trying to get gnome to work, so I was trying to use systemd. It saved no logs (none I can find), but then again /var was not mounted. Any help with this would be appreciated. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it? John Covici covici@ccs.covici.com
