Frans, You will have to show us the commands you used so we can understand what you did. As per https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=883690 did you obtain a systemd.coredump file? You may have to alter some of the systemd boot parameters to be able to get more useful information: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_Systemd_problems https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Debugging/ The latter link shows how to debug systemd boot problems. Some of the more relevant systemd boot parameters (to be added to the kernel command line of your boot loader) mentioned include: systemd.log_level=debug systemd.dump_core=true systemd.crash_shell=true The first one should give you more information on the console. The last one should be able to get you a shell after systemd crashes. There will be a 10 second delay from the crash till the shell appears. If you can't get a shell via systemd, then you can try booting to init directly and then try starting systemd manually (to see if it crashes). You should be able to get a core dump and run gdb on it in this way. You will also have to manually remount the / filesystem as read/write: init=/bin/sh mount -o remount,rw / exec /usr/lib/systemd/systemd Cheers, Mike -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page Do not top post on this list.
