I have a weird issue I’m trying to figure out with Arch and SystemD, and I
wonder if anyone here has run into this issue:
I’m running ArchLinux as a Xen VM. Every time I reboot the system, I can no
longer ping it or access it via SSH. However, if I go into the XenCenter UI and
click the “Console” tab to view the VM’s login screen, all of a sudden SSH and
ping works again. It’s as if systemd is waiting for the login screen to be
viewed before it allows SSH to work. Is this some kind of systemd
socket-activated functionality related to the getty service? How can I prevent
this so that I can log in via SSH after reboot without having to run the
XenCenter UI?
Thanks,

Ben,
Try adding console=ttyS0 as kernel parameter to the boot command.
