dracut does not shutdown your system with old systemd versions. Can you show me the /proc/mounts entry? There cannot be any /run mount, if no directory exists. This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component. |
Description of problem: Since F15 core, dracut has been using /run, but its "Requires: filesystem" still accepts an old version of 'filesystem' without a /run directory. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dracut-013-4.fc16 (and all versions back to dracut-009-10.fc15 (F15 core) inclusive) How reproducible: There will probably never be a problem in real life; only if one is brave enough to upgrade to F15/F16 dracut on an F14 system. Steps to Reproduce/Actual results: With an initramfs generated by these dracut's, but on a system without a /run directory, boot seems OK, but at shutdown there are repeated messages: "umount: /run: not found" (and similar from umount2). (There may well be messages at boot that I missed. There is also a bogus /run entry in /proc/mounts .) Suggested fix: Update the "Requires: filesystem" in dracut.spec to be: Requires: filesystem >= 2.4.39 # first appearance of /run Additional info: I grant that this is probably a moot point (not to be confused with a mount point), but if the Requires is there at all it ought to be correct.
