linux-lts systemd failure

Open bcookatpcsd opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

Thank you for making this script, I've used it the last few times I needed to make an Arch machine.. and it has helped me greatly.

I chose linux-lts and systemd as the boot manager and I do not think there is entry for the lts kernel.

I understand the issue and will deal with it on my side accordingly.. but I will check out your script and see if I can make an adjustment.

Again thank you for your script.

Thanks for your your feedback, I've tested with grub succefully but not with other bootloader... I've added this choice due to the recent change of ArchLinux base package...

If the kernel package has a systemd bootloader entry, it appears to be fine. But it does look like it needs some attention if you pick it.. or at least an acknowledgement that 'my system might not boot'.

It looks like only the stock linux kernel has a configuration file.

The lts kernel does not have a configuration file. so choosing lts and systemd-boot is the problem.

Choosing the stock kernel and systemd-boot you can add lts later..

Nothing is 'broken', but you do have an non booting system if you choose lts and do not edit the config files..

In fact, this has happened. Systemd-boot does not create entries for any kernel other than mailine and its fallback. I've tried with lts. For now users must, before restarting the machine, correct the entries in /boot...
