Hi. I am preparing a custom PXE+TFTP+Rsync-based cluster setup and just discovered that Debian is missing systemd-firstboot. It would be quite nice to be able to call this from my initramfs script.
Since I am using stable, I am stuck here anyway. But please consider shipping this tool, it is documented all over the net and it is not immediately obvious to a random user like me why it was excluded. Feels like a slightly crippled package now. I understand that Debian does its installation initialisation differently. But given that it is easy to debootstrap and systemd-nspawn into a chroot, it would be nice to be able to do the initialisation of essential things after debootstrap with systemd-firstboot. After all, Debian has decided to go for systemd. Why not all the way? -- AR Mario Lang Phone: +43 316 873 6897 Graz University of Technology Mobile: +43 664 60 873 6897 IT-Services for research and teaching Email: ml...@tugraz.at Steyrergasse 30/1, 8010 Graz, Austria www.zid.tugraz.at
