I also encountered this issue. There are some conflicts between kdump- tools and dkms, resulting in the cycled start sequence below: basic.target -> dkms.service -> network-pre.target -> networking.service -> kdump-tools.service -> basic.target systemd[1]: basic.target: Found ordering cycle on kdump-tools.service/sqtart systemd[1]: basic.target: Found dependency on networking.service/start systemd[1]: basic.target: Found dependency on network-pre.target/start systemd[1]: basic.target: Found dependency on dkms.service/start systemd[1]: basic.target: Found dependency on basic.target/start systemd[1]: basic.target: Job kdump-tools.service/start deleted to break ordering cycle starting with basic.target/start > ``` > systemctl status kdump-tools > ○ kdump-tools.service - Kernel crash dump capture service > Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/kdump-tools.service; enabled; preset: enabled) > Active: inactive (dead) > ``` > > > -- System Information: > Debian Release: 13.0 > APT prefers testing > APT policy: (500, 'testing') > Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) > Foreign Architectures: i386 > > Kernel: Linux 6.12.32-amd64 (SMP w/24 CPU threads; PREEMPT) > Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set > Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash > Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) > LSM: AppArmor: enabled > > Versions of packages kdump-tools depends on: > ii bsdextrautils 2.41-5 > ii bsdmainutils 12.1.8 > ii busybox-static [busybox] 1:1.37.0-6 > ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.91 > ii file 1:5.46-5 > ii init-system-helpers 1.68 > ii kexec-tools 1:2.0.29-2+b2 > ii linux-base 4.12 > ii lsb-base 11.6 > ii sysvinit-utils [lsb-base] 3.14-4 > ii ucf 3.0052 > > Versions of packages kdump-tools recommends: > ii initramfs-tools-core 0.148.2 > pn makedumpfile <none> > > kdump-tools suggests no packages. > > -- Configuration Files: > /etc/default/kdump-tools changed: > USE_KDUMP=1 > KDUMP_KERNEL=/var/lib/kdump/vmlinuz > KDUMP_INITRD=/var/lib/kdump/initrd.img > KDUMP_COREDIR="/var/crash" Thanks, Rong
