Description of problem: after installation of F21 Alpha "/" has permissions 755. It should have 555. The package "filesystem" responsible for fs permissions tries to do it right so it seems like anaconda or something else does it wrong. Additional info: Similiar bug for RHEL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1149374
Please attach the log files from the installation as individual, text/plain attachments. They are available in /tmp in the install environment and copied to /var/log/anaconda in the installed system. Also, which installation media are you using? (server/workstation/etc). This is working fine for me with both the Server and Workstation installs.
I take that back. The permissions are being modified after booting into the installed system. / (or rather, /sysroot) is still 0555 just before dracut pivots into the new root, so maybe systemd is modifying the permissions.
Booting a fresh install into emergency.target, / still has 0555, but booting into rescue.target / has been modified to 0755
fedora-import-state.service is the culprit. Argh, initscripts!
Why is this in POST? Do you have a link to an upstream commit fixing the issue?

This message is a reminder that Fedora 21 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 21. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '21'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 21 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
This issue is not present any more on F23. closing.
