Yes, it shows a lot of "starting"/"started"/... without the quiet setting. So systemd sees the quiet option and this overrides the settings in system.conf. It even overrides "systemd.showconsole=yes" on the kernel command line. It seems reasonable that systemd infers verbosity settings from this quiet option in the absence of explicit configuration. But at the moment, it is impossible to suppress kernel-messages while showing systemd progress. If this is intended behaviour, please consider this bug report an enhancement request. My usecase: kernel messages sometimes hide the luks passphrase prompt from the initrd (e.g. user plugs in a keyboard to enter passphrase). This confuses the unversed user. The quiet option remedies this, but with systemd, the screen is frozen for almost a minute after the kernel calls init. -- 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.

And I was wrong about systemd.show_console: I just forgot the underscore. However, the manpages suggests that system.conf overrides the quiet option while in fact the converse is true. I think this should be fixed. -- 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.
