I did a git bisect on my system, but I couldn't make much sense of the result. The commit it finally settled on didn't seem to have anything to with acpi.

I sent the result to the kernel acpi development list but never got an answer. If someone else on this list wants to try, I can send him my complete bisect logs.

This quite frustrating. After recompiling, following the book to the letter, I still get a frozen LFS system. One thing I do note however is that the freezing always occurs after systemd has detected that it is on a virtual machine. A number of error messages is send, but due to ratelimiting I can't see them because they are suppressed.

I had even rebuild everything with systemd-232, and that worked as before. But after 232, things started to behave strange. Now way to debug systemd, whatever I do....

Help?

I don't mean to be pedantic, but I really don't think you would run into these types of problems using System V.  Why not try that?

Hi Bruce,
With System V there is - of course - no problem. The thing is that systemd - if it runs well - is somewhat easier to use because of the use of .service files. I also noticed that some packages are only shipping .service(.in) files and have abandon the use of sysVinit files. Combined with the fact that most distributions have embraced systemd as their primary or only init system let me believe that we are stuck with this piece of ever growing mutation. And as LFS is a teaching ground, it should - however reluctant - incorporated this too.

Also, the goal is that someone fire-up their basic hardware with a LFS born OS, but for testing or use in VM's development is nowadays mostly within the VM realm.

Regards,
Frans
