It seems systemd cannot mount /tmp, possibly because the kernel does not have CONFIG_TMPFS=y. I think this is required – while tmp.mount (in-memory /tmp) can be masked, but systemd will always try to mount a tmpfs on /run, for daemons' runtime data. Not sure if that's why it hangs though. Would be nice to check the state from inside – e.g. enable debug-shell.service and check `systemctl list-jobs --full` when it hangs on the next boot... (It runs on tty9; edit the service file if you only have serial console.) Another possible method is to boot a minimal system in either rescue or emergency mode ("single" or "emergency" as kernel parameters) and try starting multi-user.target manually... -- Mantas Mikulėnas <<a href="mailto:grawity@gmail.com">grawity@gmail.com</a>> // sent from phone <div class="gmail_quote">On Jun 13, 2014 12:19 PM, "Jay D Bhatt" <<a href="mailto:jay.bhatt@igate.com">jay.bhatt@igate.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> Sorry, Forgot to send log.
