Also, for any kind of early boot troubleshooting even once a user is created, systemd emergency and rescue targets only accept root user login. If root user is disabled, it's impossible to do such early boot troubleshooting. So I think systemd needs a way to accept an admin user (wheel group) as an alternative login rather than only root. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
