Title:
fails to boot with "Attempted to kill init" in VMWare, absolute
/sbin/init symlink does not work
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
My Ubuntu 15.04 VM (running under VMware) doesn't boot anymore after
permanently switching to systemd.
I've switched to systemd with "apt install systemd-sysv --purge" (it only
purged the upstart package) and with the default "Ubuntu" entry the boot fails
after about 2.5 sec with a kernel panic ("Attempted to kill init"). But it
works when edit the grub entry (in the grub shell) and add
"init=/lib/systemd/systemd".
Attached is the serial output (with "debug" but no "init=" parameter).
