Next episode: I also migrated my gentoo thinkpad to systemd today.
Generally very similar to my desktop ... ~amd64 with Gnome 3.6. Things went pretty well, I have to say. I can login to gdm here! ;-) An issue I haven't solved yet: encrypted swap. I always get timeouts as systemd waits for the decrypted mapper-device to come up. Swap doesn't get enabled but when it finally continues to boot I see the valid mapper-device there and can "swapon" it manually. # cat /etc/crypttab swap /dev/disk/by-id/ata-INTEL_SSDSA2M080G2GC_CVPO015404LR080JGN-part5 /dev/urandom swap,cipher=aes-cbc-essiv:sha256,size=256 # grep swap /etc/fstab /dev/mapper/swap none swap defaults 0 0 AFAI understand these 2 lines should be enough to let systemd generate its relevant unit-files etc. Right? Best regards, have a nice weekend, Stefan
