Bug#868164: systemd: fakeraid + cryptsetup (root) + lvm results in 90s time out waiting for device at boot

[Sergey Belyashov]

Hi,
I have found, that my problem is caused only in case of mdraid device
partitioning. To reproduce:
1. Take 2 HDD (at least by 50 GB)
2. Run from any LiveCD
3. Make two partitions on each HDD: for 256-1024MB and for remaining space,
make first partition bootable
4. Create mdraid1 around second partitions of both HDD
5. Repartition md device by 3 partitions: 10GB (md0p1), 20GB (md0p2) and
remaining space (md0p3)
6. Using cryptsetup configure luks encryption over md0p2.
7. Install debian 9 or 10, using: /dev/sda1 - /boot, /dev/md0p1 - /root,
/dev/md0p2 - /var, /dev/mapper/ - /home
After reboot system do not start if default boot options are specified. It
will wait for some devices to be ready, but no any password prompt. There
is only one way to boot system: run rescue mode and then exit from rescue
shell using Ctrl-D.

If you create on HDDs four partitions and use them to build four RAID1
devices, then encrypted device configured on /dev/md3 will start on boot
successfully (after prompting password).

So I think, some boot scripts/services does not know anything about md
device partitioning.

Please ignore information about start of debian9 before /var mount in my
previous message. It was caused by strange config possibly kept from
Jessie (/etc/systemd/system/bind9.service.d/override.conf). After removing
it, bind starts after /var mount.

Bug#801316: netcf: ncftool fails when 'source-directory' directive is used in /etc/network/interfaces

[Sergey Belyashov]

Hi,
I think, roots of problem are in augeas project. It parses config files and
does not understand 'source-directory' instruction.
I have created bug about it:

Bug#801316: netcf: ncftool fails when 'source-directory' directive is used in /etc/network/interfaces

[Sergey Belyashov]

Package: netcf
Version: 1:0.2.6-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I try to use libvirt, but it spams internal errors to syslog, same as in
Bug#740114.
Next I try to run ncftool directly:
$ ncftool list
error: unspecified error
error: errors in loading some config files

$ sudo ncftool list
error: unspecified error
error: errors in loading some config files

Then I try to comment 'source-directory' line of my /etc/network/interfaces
and ncftool succeeded, but no output (it is correct, because file contains
only one directive):

$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

source-directory interfaces.d

$ ls /etc/network/interfaces.d
00_lo  10_eth0  20_br0  30_eth1  40_eth2  50_eth3  90_ppp0

Then I try to upgrade netcf package to last possible varsion. But nothing
changed.
