Hi !<br>I've managed to add the proper symlinks in sbin and the reboot/halt/poweroff/shutdown are now handled by systemctl. I also removed the INIT_VERSION environment entry from the corresponding units. Should I consider to keep the entries in the current units (i.e.: /etc/init.d/reboot) that are unmounting the filesystems or should systemctl handle all the unmounting actions safely ? <br> <br>Best !<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Sep 27, 2010 at 3:17 AM, Lennart Poettering <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:lennart@poettering.net">lennart@poettering.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div class="im">On Thu, 23.09.10 14:09, Cristian Axenie (<a href="mailto:cristian.axenie@gmail.com">cristian.axenie@gmail.com</a>) wrote:<br> <br> > Hi !<br> ><br> > Any ideas about the following behavior?<br> ><br> > ~ # reboot<br> > Broadcast message from root (ttyS0)<br> ><br> > The system is going down for system halt NOW!<br> > [ 296.080000] systemd-initctl[698]: Received environment initctl request.<br> > This is not implemented in systemd.<br> <br> </div>Hmm, interesting. Normally this environment stuff is only used for<br> controlling the type of a poweroff (i.e. halt vs. poweroff), and matters<br> little.<br> <br> Note that this messages should only become visible if you try to control<br> systemd with implementations of halt/reboot/poweroff/shutdown from the<br> old sysvinit package. It is recommended to use the native systemd<br> implementations instead which you get by symlinking /bin/systemctl to<br> the various binaries.<br> <br> For more details see:<br> <br> <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2010-June/000072.html" target="_blank">http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2010-June/000072.html</a><br> <div class="im"><br> > And then the system freezes !<br> <br> </div>Completely?
