Description of problem: Not possible to boot to emergency.target Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): selinux-policy-targeted-3.14.1-24.fc28.noarch How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Reboot into GRUB menu 2. Press 'e' to edit 3. In the linux line, add "systemd.unit=emergency.target" Actual results: systemd is booted from the root filesystem. It logs that the journal service is stopped (this is it noticing the death of journald from the initrd). It logs that initrd-switch-root has finished. Then, it just repeatedly logs the message that it is looping too fast, and it is throttling execution. It does not start an emergency shell, prompt for the root password, or show any response to normal keypresses. Expected results: An emergency shell Additional info: This only happens when booting with selinux in enforcing mode. When booting in permissive mode, I get the expected results.
Same for me.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life. On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '28'. 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 28 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.
Appears to be fixed. At least, I was not able to reproduce it in Fedora 30. Hooray :-).
Thanks for update. Closing this ticket.
