1 next box tested.
2 Installed systemd on my main workstation now that I understood how to
3 easily flip back to booting w/ openrc in case of problems.
4
5 I heavily use LVM here and this gives me the following issues:
6
7 I use lvm.service from the gentoo-wiki:
8
9 http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Systemd#LVM
10
11 For sure I enabled it ...
12
13 When I boot this machine it boots up to starting the LVM-devices and
14 waits for some time then writes something like:
15
16 welcome to emergency mode ...
17 Start of /dev/VG...something failed (due to some dependencies)
18
19 (for all the LVs)
20
21 and lets me login or press Ctrl-D to continue.
22
23 (I can't remember the exact words, don't know if they are logged somewhere)
24
25 When I press Ctrl-D all the LVs are mounted(!) and it boots up fine to
26 graphical login.
27
28 hmm.
29
30 It then tells me:
31
32 # systemctl status lvm.service
33 lvm.service - Linux Volume Manager
34 Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/lvm.service)
35 Active: active (exited) since Mon, 22 Aug 2011 09:55:36 +0200; 22min ago
36 Process: 5568 ExecStop=/sbin/lvchange --sysinit -a ln $(/sbin/vgs -o
37 vg_name --noheadings --nosuffix 2> /dev/null) (code=exited, status=3)
38 Process: 5861 ExecStart=/sbin/vgchange --sysinit -a ly (code=exited,
39 status=0/SUCCESS)
40 Process: 5738 ExecStart=/sbin/vgscan --mknodes --ignorelockingfailure
41 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
42 Process: 5654 ExecStart=/sbin/pvscan --ignorelockingfailure
43 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
44 CGroup: name=systemd:/system/lvm.service
45
46 Why does that ExecStop fail? Why is it called at boot anyway?
47
48 I also tried another lvm.service from the russian gentoo-wiki, that
49 servicefile just pulls in /etc/init.d/lvm, but that didn't help so I
50 went back to the mentioned file.
51
52 What I wonder: what changes between running into that timeout and my
53 pressing Ctrl-D?
54
55 Thanks for helpful comments, Stefan
