Expecting device dev-ttySAC3.device... ... [ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-ttySAC3.device. [DEPEND] Dependency failed for Serial Getty on ttySAC3. Here on Arndale Octa, using "console=ttySAC3,115200n8", with latest self-compiled 3.15.rc2+ as well as 3.14.0. Dito for ODROID-XU using "console=ttySAC2,115200n8", with downstream 3.14. There I can ssh in and do see the device, long before the timeout: $ ll /dev/ttySAC2 crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 204, 66 Jan 1 2000 /dev/ttySAC2 Yet `systemctl start serial-getty@ttySAC2.service` times out again. However, `yast services` > "serial-getty@ttySAC2" (shown "Disabled|Inactive") > "Start/Stop" > "OK" revives it (until the next boot). $ udevadm info -qall -p /sys/class/tty/ttySAC2 P: /devices/12c20000.serial/tty/ttySAC2 N: ttySAC2 E: DEVNAME=/dev/ttySAC2 E: DEVPATH=/devices/12c20000.serial/tty/ttySAC2 E: MAJOR=204 E: MINOR=66 E: SUBSYSTEM=tty E: TAGS=:systemd: E: USEC_INITIALIZED=11940 A similar timeout happened waiting for dev-mmcblk0p1.device after assigning the mount point /boot to that partition and booting with root=/dev/mmcblk0p2. I.e., systemd does not see dev-foo.device despite /dev/foo getting created. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
