We do not delay output forever, to not block boot, after all this is mostly just cosmetical...

Re: [systemd-devel] Fall back to shell and still see failure
I was hoping that was it, but it turns out that emergency.service is already of type idle. I know the console port is very slow on my device. Could this be caused by some kind of buffer flushing? This is the output on the console port: == [ OK ] Started Chasfs Flashutil. [ OK ] Reached target ChWelcome to emergency mode! After logging in, type "journalctl -xsu login-4.2# == Notice the spaces between the "su" and the "login-4.2". Also, the string "Reached target Chasfs Flashutil" doesn't get to complete.

[systemd-devel] Fall back to shell and still see failure
Hi During a normal boot on my system, the last service to launch starts a special shell which isn't your standard linux shell. Unfortunately, before getting to that service, there is a long chain of dependencies which have to run. I want to drop to a normal linux shell when any of these dependencies fail to be able to jump right into debugging it. I set the "OnFailure" option of the last service to "emergency.target". This works great. The only issue is that the shell appears before systemd has a chance to display which service actually failed. I can obviously check which service failed with "systemctl --failed" but I'd like to have it displayed during boot as it normally is. I'm assuming I can't see the failure message because emergency.service grabs control of the console before systemd can print out it's message. Is this the case? Is there any way to get what I'm looking for? ___ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
