I don't think there's any change needed here. The interface states: "The initrd should mount /run as a tmpfs". Consider the definition of "should" from RFC2119 SHOULD: This word, or the adjective "RECOMMENDED", mean that there may exist valid reasons in particular circumstances to ignore a particular item, but the full implications must be understood and carefully weighed before choosing a different course. And sure enough, this isn't a requirement, but there's many valid reasons to do this. _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
