No, they can be removed. There's a large table of guaranteed mounts in mount-setup.c:

};

Aw. And I thought I was being clever looking for mount scripts. :C

I guess they're essential mounts for systemd to run properly/efficiently? Or is there a different reason for why they're hard-coded into the array?

Right. Because they're essential for proper operation.

Have you tried with systemd.automount?
With comment=systemd.automount in fstab it will be mounted when it is needed.

I have not tried that yet. Would it have an adverse effect on booting without using systemd?

Re: systemd: Yet Another Init Replacement

Looks like the default getty@.service isn't suited for ngetty, at least if that is used as intended (as a single daemon providing login sessions for all given tty).

I noticed an error in the ntpd.service file. The environment path should be

EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/ntp-client.conf

instead of /etc/conf.d/ntp.conf

Re: systemd: Yet Another Init Replacement

booting [community] systemd-37 and [testing] cryptsetup-1.4.0 leads to following error:

Oct 31 11:15:22 laptop [   29.318759] systemd-cryptsetup[677]: /lib/systemd/systemd-cryptsetup: error while loading shared libraries: libcryptsetup.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

rebuilding systemd from abs fixes this.
So care if you have an ecrypted (non-root) device and are using [testing].

True, since ntp-4.2.6.p4-2 is in extra, the path was changed to  /etc/conf.d/ntpd.conf and the unit file works again.

Re: systemd: Yet Another Init Replacement

Is there any way to persist NETWORK_PERSIST="yes" in systemd? I have my rootfs on NFS, system boots with no problem, but I cannot shut down or reboot (I just get a black screen and the system is crashed in a weird state). I think that something is preventing the halt or reset, but I have no idea how to diagnose what that is.

My guess is that we should look at how dracut deals with this and see if there is anything we could do to make NETWORK_PERSIST obsolete. As far as I know there is no support for anything like NETWORK_PERSIS in fedora, but I might be wrong...

Re: systemd: Yet Another Init Replacement

Quick question: how do you get into X if you use a lightweight window manager like awesome? Running a full-blown DM seems like overkill. In the Gentoo Wiki i found a "startx.service" but that won't work.

How do you do it now? I assume a line in inittab? Could you paste the line you have and I'll make an example out of it.

Name the following xinit@.service then enable this service.

[Unit]
Description=Direct login to X for user %I
Requires=dev-tty2.device
After=dev-tty2.device systemd-user-sessions.service

[Service]
ExecStart=/bin/su %I -l -c "/bin/zsh --login -c xinit >/dev/null 2>&1"
StandardOutput=syslog

[Install]
WantedBy=graphical.target

you might want to change zsh to bash if required

Re: systemd: Yet Another Init Replacement

Interesting… It's one and a half year after I first saw this thread. Systemd seems to be a major player in the linux init league now. This Lennart Poettering guy is amazing. Pulseaudio, avahi, systemd - everybody hates it, everybody uses it, but nobody would admit that. So, as a so called professional, I'll have to learn how to use it, better now than next year.

Yeah, the usual thing. The haters raise their voice, but the moment somebody says he likes something, he's either a hippie, a fanboy or somebody with unexpected sexual preferences. I have no particular opinion: I have yet to try systemd more than half an hour, avahi is somewhat cool and pulseaudio, well, is standard on so many distros, it can't be THAT broken anymore.

Personally, I think pulseaudio was implemented a bit too soon, and that might've given people somewhat of a sour taste, but yeah.

Anyhow, I've used systemd now for more than 8 months. It's been working quite nice all this time as far as I can tell. So yeah, give it another go and see what you think. Make sure it lasts more than half an hour though. smile

Re: systemd: Yet Another Init Replacement

I didnt understand the Vala Problem.

Glib is in every base system, if you like it or not.

And you can use Vala to output plain C and re-package this plain C. So you dont need any Vala on any system.

So you have Plain C Code which most dependency is glib (which is on nearly every base system anyway) but its developed much faster in Vala than than in plain C (for this developer)

So we have the advantage that we get Plain C Code and the developer have the advantage that he does not have to write C Code and so develops faster.

I think its a good idea at all.

Re: systemd: Yet Another Init Replacement

No burning hate on systemd, but i hope the usual archlinux initscripts keep being the default.

I lack nothing as it is and has been for a great while, and as long as that is the case
- i personally see no need for systemd, or pulseaudio, or avahi.
neither do i udiskie or ck-launch-session, or mysql-like databases.

Things boot fast, audio works with alsa and my applications,
and my network is configured and working as it is.
Openbox works fine, Kde does to, though it is a bit more stuff to scale down there.

Perhaps in the future, i will be forced to look into systemd, just because,
but for now i keep reading this thread now and then. smile
