We have a system that is based on Debian Live's live-boot and overlayfs. During shutdown we see the scary message:
[ NN.NNNNN] system-shutdown[1]: Failed to finalize file systems, ignoring Of course, I gather this is because our root filesystem isn't mounted on / and can't be unmounted during earlier phases of shutdown. I wrote a sevice unit to remount the actual root filesystem as read only during shutdown so that somewhat alleviates this issue but doesn't fix the message. I am interested in a more permanent fix. Would it be acceptable to extend systemd to attempt to remount any (besides Root and Usr) read-write filesystems as read only and consider them finalized instead of requiring them to be unmounted? Or if unmounting fails in the earlier stage, perhaps try remounting the filesystems as read only during the unmount and consider this sufficient to finalize a filesystem? Or something else I hadn't considered?
