Hi,

There have been various talks about systemd at the
openSUSE conference and we would like to go forward.

So next step would be a wider testing: so please install
systemd and boot with init=/bin/systemd and report issues (here).

AJ documented some more details on:
http://lizards.opensuse.org/2010/10/08/systemd-and-osc2010/

Hi

First a disclaimer. I'm new to testing bits of linux/openSUSE and not too
confident that all of the following is correct so I hope you can bear with
me. :)

I was testing systemd successfully using the default kernel from the
standard repos (non-factory) until a recent change in systemd caused a
problem. I've been getting an error at boot time saying that the
"/sys/fs/cgroup" can't be mounted. At that point I switched to the 2.6.36

You can ignore that message, it should still work.

rc from Kernel Head and that worked OK. The problem with that kernel is
there's no kernel sources available (unless I'm missing something obvious)
for that release, as I use VMware products on my workstation most of the
time I can't use that kernel or systemd. I'd like to get it working again
on the current kernel, if possible.

You can use the openSUSE head kernel from the Kernel:HEAD project or from
openSUSE:Factory.

In doing some research I found the following on lkml.org:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/7/22/384 and current versions of systemd now
mount cgroupfs on /sys/fs/cgroup - I suppose my questions are: can that
patch be backported to the current 2.6.34 kernel; if it can be backported
how do I get it actioned?

We disabled it and forgot to enable it again, really use the 2.6.36 kernel.

Andreas
