Description Ira Malinich 2010-09-07 22:56:28 UTC
Description of problem:
Installed from systemd Test Day LiveCD (didn't get firstboot at all) and updated via yum.  After reboot to runlevel 5, still no firstboot, but booting to runlevel 3 (or 2 or 4) starts text mode firstboot on tty1 and the regular login prompt redraws the screen after about ten seconds.  Thereafter, keystrokes randomly get sent to either getty/login or firstboot.
Other virtual consoles (tty2 through tty6) work fine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
systemd-9-3.fc14

How reproducible:
Consistently

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install from F14 systemd Test Day LiveCD (http://adamwill.fedorapeople.org/systemd_test_day_20100907/systemd_20100907.iso) (may not be necessary with an up-to-date F14 system)
2. Update system with yum
3. "rm /etc/sysconfig/firstboot" if it exists
4. Reboot and add "3" to boot parameters
  
Actual results:
Quantum firstboot where it both exists and doesn't exist.

Expected results:
Either a working firstboot followed by getty login or just the getty login, not both.

What version of firstboot?

Comment 2 Adam Williamson 2010-09-08 15:20:07 UTC
I'm fairly sure all current firstboot weirdness is caused by the problem I explain in 628241.
