Hello all,
I recently installed systemd-18-1.2.4 and systemd-sysvinit-18-1.2.4 on Tumbleweed. However, during the reboot the system stalled.
My system setup always has /usr in a separate partition. Is this the reason for the system stalling during the reboot?
I could not recover. Is there a way to recover from this?
Cheers!

yeap if you have followed the systemd thread separate /usr is not the best way to get it working actually. last time I fail with systemd I've booted with 1 at the end of the line, remove systemd then add sysv-init from local rpm But didn't know all the details, sorry
I wish I hadn't missed that thread. I didn’t know about adding the number "1" at the end of the kernel options line in Grub workaround. Good to know
:-)
However, it's a good thing to remember when I'm on forums.opensuse.org.
Coming from SysV, I'm sure we're not the only ones using a separate /usr partition.
And, I'm wondering if it's a limitation, or temporary bug ;-)
systemd does not support a separate /usr partition. This was a decision of the devs - according to them there are lots of weird corner cases with /usr on a separate partition and you shouldn't want it.

In response to the devs reminding me of my 80's partition config:
<snip http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/separate-usr-is-broken>
And let's clarify a few things:
1. It isn't systemd's fault. systemd works fine with /usr on a separate file system.
2. systemd is merely the messenger. Don't shoot the messenger.
3. There's no news in all of this. The message you saw is just a statement of fact, describing the status quo. Things have been this way since a while.
4. The message is merely a warning. You can choose to ignore it.
5. Don't blame us, don't abuse us, it's not our fault, and if you complain to us we'll just ignore you.

I will backup my folders on /home partition to my usb drive and repartition without a separate /usr partition.
Now THAT is a darn productive attitude, and /me likes :D Good luck!
Cheers!
