A few days after the first occurrence, Emergency Mode will allow input in the form of the 3-finger salute --Ctrl-Alt-Del which starts a reboot, after about a considerable delay. It is possible that I idn't wait long enough. Apologies for any misunderstanding. ------------- After my last update on that system 5 days ago, still, the only input allowed by Emergency Mode is the same, Ctrl-Alt-Del, and wait for it to start rebooting. Emergency Mode does not allow me to login, or perform any other input, such as, run mc and edit the fstab of the existing Manjaro install, in order to actualize it's fstab to reflect the new UUID created by formatting another install. I recreated this same senario by executing Emergency Mode from a normal Xfce4 session, reaching the same end as before --Ctrl-Alt-Del. I believe it would help systemd acceptance by other distros, if Emergency Mode allowed logging in as root to undertake editing of the fstab of the distro with the old UUID. Other than this, systemd seems a considerable improvement over SysV.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
