I guess that it's always important to read well the mailing list dedicated before to update in testing (https://lists.debian.org/debian-testing-changes/) and read each report if it's about delicate programs. Update with blind eyes it's very dangerous in testing! Otherwise there is the stable version. > I see I got a new systemd service. but this can't properly mount my LVM > partitions and always land me into the maintenance mode.

I have never seen any debian netinstall choose the systemd option as default, I get the impression that perhaps you have decided to install systemd manually.....is it right ? > Installed systemd again , no change, BUT WAIT..... if I execute "exit" > command from maintenance, it put me into normal graphical mode. > OK, now I got it few times... first it put me into maintenance after boot, > then exit command puts me into mode 2 with all LVM mounted properly. You could try to restart again from netinstall cd and the next time not install systemd until there will not an official comunication. this is my advice trusted. Sysv init is still alive and it works very well. Cheers. Carlo. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
