Package: systemd Version: 215-8 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I'm trying to configure nfsroot installation for diskless clients. - <server$> debootstrap .... /path/to/client-root - <server$> chroot /path/to/client-root /bin/bash - CHR#> apt-get install <lots of stuff w/o problems> - CHR#> apt-get install systemd The last command leads to some error message (I can't remember) Then, after googling, I run something like dpkg -a (still in the chrooted shell) This made my server completely frozen. After forceful reboot, It seems that I got parts of systemd installed on the server, too, not only on the chrooted client-root. root@cruncher:/cluster/tftp/active/pxelinux.cfg# dpkg --list | grep systemd ii libpam-systemd:amd64 215-8 amd64 system and service manager - PAM module ii libsystemd-login0:amd64 44-11+deb7u4 amd64 systemd login utility library ii libsystemd0:amd64 215-8 amd64 systemd utility library ii systemd 215-8 amd64 system and service manager ii systemd-shim 9-1 amd64 shim for systemd root@cruncher:/cluster/tftp/active/pxelinux.cfg# grep systemd /var/log/apt/history.log ..... is EMPTY .... So I think systemd got installed accidentially by breaking the chroot. I also think that my mount list is weird and contains both systemd and sysv-init mounts: sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime) proc on /proc type proc (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime) udev on /dev type devtmpfs (rw,relatime,size=10240k,nr_inodes=2036655,mode=755) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,gid=5,mode=620,ptmxmode=000) tmpfs on /run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,size=1637124k,mode=755) /dev/sda2 on / type ext4 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,user_xattr,barrier=1,data=ordered) tmpfs on /run/lock type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,size=5120k) tmpfs on /run/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,size=9524120k) /dev/sda4 on /home type ext4 (rw,relatime,user_xattr,barrier=1,data=ordered) /dev/sdb2 on /ssd type ext4 (rw,relatime,user_xattr,barrier=1,data=ordered) rpc_pipefs on /run/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw,relatime) binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime) cgroup on /sys/fs/cgroup type tmpfs (rw,relatime,size=12k) configfs on /sys/kernel/config type configfs (rw,relatime) nfsd on /proc/fs/nfsd type nfsd (rw,relatime) systemd on /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd type cgroup (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,release_agent=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/systemd-shim-cgroup-release-agent,name=systemd) tmpfs on /run/user/0 type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,size=1637124k,mode=700) tmpfs on /run/user/1000 type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,size=1637124k,mode=700,uid=1000,gid=1000) However, the system behaviour seems OK as far as I can tell. How can I get rid of the situation? I think such things should not happen. May be it is difficult / impossible to install such fundamental stuff like systemd into a chrooted debootstrap. Nevertheless, then I'd expect a graceful fail with some decent error message, and not a poke into the host system.
