Hi!
Two questions:
1) Why can't I use "systemctl start network" in a chroot environment (e.g. mounting the
system from a rescue medium to fix a defective kernel)? When I try I get: "Running in chroot,
ignoring command 'start'"
From docs/ENVIRONMENT.md:
* `$SYSTEMD_IGNORE_CHROOT=1` — if set, don't check whether being invoked
in a
`chroot()` environment. This is particularly relevant for systemctl,
as it
will not alter its behaviour for `chroot()` environments if set.
Normally it
refrains from talking to PID 1 in such a case; turning most
operations such
as `start` into no-ops. If that's what's explicitly desired, you might
consider setting `$SYSTEMD_OFFLINE=1`.
