29 What's to add is that restarting from the semi booted state always
30 resulted in the same partial boot with the rootfs mounted read-only.
31 After fixing this by manually starting all services everything was fine
32 after the next boot. Today when booting again the same happened. I am
33 writing this now from the manually started system. I will try restarting
34 over and check if I can reproduce this issue reliable.
