Ed, I'm not having problems, but not having noticed those unit before I checked their status. Both are enabled and have run abd exited with status 0. Is that the typical status for a running system?

Anyway, to repeat, there is no indication they are "running" and doing the needed depmod along the way. So, it is possible (and I've done it) to mess things up beyond their ability to recover. I don't know if that is what happened in your casebut since the solution for you was was to manually run "depmod -a" I would think it is a possibility. -- You're Welcome Zachary Quinto signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

I've been fooled by that in the past, not with systemd, either, but on Centos 6, or so, when after a virtualbox update the system can take five mins during boot with a blank screen to do whatever it is doing with kmod and virtualbox. -- Fred Smith -- fre...@fcshome.stoneham.ma.us - "For the word of God is living and active.

In addition to what others have said, make sure you have both akmods-shutdown.service and akmods.service enabled. I've found that having both enabled will catch improperly installed kmods. The one thing to realize is that, unfortunately, you don't get an indication they are running either at boot time or shutdown time.

The akmod utility doesn't run depmod. All it does is build the RPM based on the new kernel and installs the resultant RPM. I've run into the occasional issue similar to yours. I haven't been able to figure out the cause but I would recommend you don't reboot too soon after a kernel update. Akmod has to install the RPM after the previous update is complete and the rpmdb lock removed. It may take longer than you think. If it gets stopped after a certain point the utility may think everything is done when the package scriptlets haven't been run yet. This is purely a guess though. In my case, the fix for me was to remove the built RPMs and re-run akmod, I didn't even think to try running depmod.
