I didn't argue about the default value for kernel.sysrq. I am arguing that it is not the job of systemd to change/force a value of kernel.sysrq. Anyway I was not able to find the reason behind this value. May be it is good for the average user, I don't know. I want to have the ability to do a Sync, saK, Umount and reBoot when my system crashed. BTW, I am looking a way to change this default without changing this file. I supposed that adding a file in /etc/sysctl.d with the MY default would be sufficient, but it seems not the case.... > > Michael > G.Baroncelli -- gpg @keyserver.linux.it: Goffredo Baroncelli (kreijackATinwind.it> Key fingerprint BBF5 1610 0B64 DAC6 5F7D 17B2 0EDA 9B37 8B82 E0B5 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
