install systemd-42-1.fc17 (which is supposed to fix a horrible bug at boot with SELinux) now systemctl is broken, running it to check the status of any service returns: Failed to get D-Bus connection: Failed to connect to socket /run/systemd/private: No such file or directory
no, just a failed daemon-reexec. "sync && reboot -f" and it should work again. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 789758 ***
Reboot also fails now. # reboot Failed to open /dev/initctl: No such device or address Failed to talk to init daemon.
