Subject: systemd 183, boot problem
Date: Sun, 27 May 2012 19:01:36 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LNX.2.01.1205271449490.4860@waverley.dhcp.wfu.edu> (raw)

I just tried updating from systemd 44 + udev 182. On booting I 
saw:

"Could not find module by name='<binary-garbage>'"
(That is, no readable module name)

"Failed to insert ipv6"

"Cannot create mount unit for API file system 
/sys/kernel/security. Refusing."

I was then dumped into emergency mode. Grubbing through the 
source I saw that /sys/kernel/security is needed by IMA, so I 
reconfigured systemd-183 with --disable-ima, rebuilt, 
reinstalled and rebooted. That didn't help; I landed in 
emergency mode again. So I ended up reinstalling 44 + 182; 
fortunately that gave me back a usable system.

I think the new securityfs requirement ought to be mentioned 
in NEWS, and made conditional on enabling IMA.
