Package: systemd Version: 208-8 File: /lib/systemd/system/rescue.service Consider what happens when the user sees this message, ExecStartPre=-/bin/echo -e 'Welcome to rescue mode! Type "systemctl default" or ^D to enter default mode.\\nType "journalctl -xb" to view system logs. Type "systemctl reboot" to reboot.'
Well, ^D works. But the rest will fail. And indeed they won't even echo when being typed (stty echo is off because it is expecting a password!) So you probably want to say instead: ExecStartPre=-/bin/echo -e 'Welcome to rescue mode! Type ^D to enter default mode. Or after root login / authorization / or some better way of saying it, type "systemctl default.. Yes, a prompt asking the user to type a password does appear nearby, but the user thus is still getting conflicting instructions on what to type. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
