Description of problem: We are trying to make a diskless Fedora 15 client with / on NFS. We have made a "yum Base --installroot ..." installation on the server. The client gets past the DHCP and PXE phases, but when booting up the systemd service remount-rootfs fails. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): systemd-units-26-4.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: Every time Actual results: remount-rootfs.service loaded failed failed Remount Root FS Additional info: We are new to systemd, so maybe we are doing something wrong and misunderstanding things. But it looks like a bug at first sight. We get other problems later on. But we are not sure to what extent they may be related. We believe this to be the first thing that fails.
most likely you simply don't have listed the root file system in /etc/fstab? We try to remount it so that all options specified in /etc/fstab are applied. If you call "/bin/mount / -o remount" what do you get?
> most likely you simply don't have listed the root file system in /etc/fstab That was it! Not a systemd issue then. The mount command didn't write anything, but gave exit status 32. After I added the root file system to fstab, it exits with status 0. Thanks for the pointer, and sorry for the confusion.
