(That, for one, gives somewhat unwarranted "scary red error messages" on the console.) systemd nevertheless instantiates an autofs mountpoint. As /proc/mounts tells me: systemd-1 /dev/hugepages autofs rw,relatime,fd=31,pgrp=1,timeout=300,minproto=5,maxproto=5,direct 0 0 Trying to open /dev/hugepages can never complete and essentially hangs a process that can only be ^C'd: 09:58 vmproto:~ # ls -l /dev/hugepages ^Cls: cannot open directory /dev/hugepages: Avbrutt systemkall This, in turn, leads to systemd being unable to reboot. LSB scripts call /sbin/showconsole, which waits forever trying to lstat("/dev/hugepages"), and so, systemd waits forever on the LSB scripts to complete. -- 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.
