A typical problem in the past has been that starting dbus includes looking at users and groups which means you need ldap and network but oh wait networkmanager starts after dbus. This can cause _really_ long timeouts during boot, basically a hang. (I might have gotten some detail wrong but something like the above can happen. There are workarounds and also SSSD might be better than nss_ldap here.) So what I'm saying is, we already have this problem and it already has to be dealt with manually by booting in single user mode or press I at the right point during boot. Possibly systemd will actually help, as it might make it possible that at least the text mode logins appear even if there's a deadlock starting some deamons. Can systemd track dependecies (deamon foo connects to socket for deamon bar) and detect and print error messages about deadlocks? Maybe even break the loops, causing some deamons to just fail to start? /Alexander -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
