I'm attaching a one-liner patch that calls `udevadm trigger` from the system service file instead, which is the same that the friendly- recovery upstart job does as well.
Note that there were 2 errors in the service file: 1) ExecStartPre=-/bin/udevadm settle The path there is wrong, because udevadm is in /sbin. The attached patch solves this as well as the font issue, in one line. 2) ExecStartPre=-/bin/sh -e 'while systemctl list-jobs | grep -v friendly-recovery | grep -q running; do sleep 0.2; done' The author there meant "sh -c", to run the command, instead of "sh -e". This is a separate issue. But since it's in the same .service file, maybe we can SRU both issues with one upload. I suggest that this line is removed completely because it just hangs if "sh -c" is used. ** Patch added: "Call udevadm trigger from friendly-recovery.service" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/friendly-recovery/+bug/1675805/+attachment/4844600/+files/friendly-recovery.patch ** Tags added: patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1675805 Title: Friendly recovery uses invalid font To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/friendly-recovery/+bug/1675805/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
