Description of problem: Booting Fedora-20110817-ppc64-netinst.iso and using the following options boot: linux vnc=1 selinux=0 systemd.log_target=kmsg systemd.log_level=debug rd.break When you are in the shell, disable Anaconda's loader from starting: switch_root:/# sed -i -e 's,/sbin/loader,/bin/bash,' /sysroot/lib/systemd/system/loader.service switch_root:/# exit Then, when you are dropped into bash, try and bring up the ethernet card. bash-4.2# ifup eth0 /sbin/ifup: line 20: /etc/init.d/functions: No such file or directory ./network-functions: line 10: /etc/init.d/functions: No such file or directory ./network-functions: line 150: is_false: command not found /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth: line 18: /etc/init.d/functions: No such file or directory ./network-functions: line 10: /etc/init.d/functions: No such file or directory ./network-functions: line 150: is_false: command not found ./network-functions: line 10: /etc/init.d/functions: No such file or directory ./network-functions: line 10: /etc/init.d/functions: No such file or directory Also, you cannot start sshd: bash-4.2# service sshd start /sbin/service: line 3: /etc/init.d/functions: No such file or directory
The /etc/init.d/functions is part of initscripts package. We don't explicitly specify to install initscripts in the ramdisk, but shouldn't it be brought in as a dependency of ifup or sshd if it is needed?
The /etc/init.d link to /etc/rc.d/init.d/ is missing in images built with lorax-treebuilder ln -sf rc.d/init.d /etc/init.d fixes ifup eth0 for me
initscripts gets pulled in by gfs2-utils at the moment, so it's in there. As for the missing link.. I'll try to figure out why it's not getting created (or why it's getting accidentally deleted).
Also, in theory (or maybe in the Glorious Future) you should be starting sshd using systemctl instead of the initscript, and ifup should be communicating directly with NetworkManager.. no idea if that's the reality yet, though.
This should be fixed in treebuilder - runtime-cleanup.tmpl has the following: removefrom chkconfig --allbut /etc/init.d which should leave the /etc/init.d link to /etc/rc.d/init.d (as mentioned in comment #2). Can someone confirm that it's fixed?
since this seems to work in the treebuilder branch, I'm closing as NEXTRELEASE.
