Now lemme send the specfic services that failed

All of this is from a chroot environment

aw. systemctl status doesn't work :/

in Chroot

I guess journalctl will have to do

sheesh. So many binary logs

Any other info?

dmesg -b -1

what's -b? It's apparently an invalid option

what is it supposed to do?

Doesn't matter. Can't dmesg in chroot

checked dmesg | grep hostname

It's my arch system

what's -b? It's apparently an invalid option

-b = boot number

-1 is the last boot

Ah

All I've done with this install is boot it once

And just install i3 and firefox

and some stuff to rice up the desktop like nitrogen

xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-340xx akmod-nvidia-340xx

I also installed these

Could that be related?

More interesting is what happens when it fails to boot - where does it do that?

it failed to boot from my configuration but thankfully it boots the normal fedora os

otherwise i would be crying in the corner now

the perfect amount of frustration

those were 6 hours of searching

xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-340xx akmod-nvidia-340xx

Those are usually to blame for everything. XD

But no, it just fails at firewalld and i have no idea why

Hm. Lemme just uninstall that. Don't need that. Wait. Is that netfilter or iptables?

How do you see if something is installed when you search for packages?

Like pacman shows a [installed] in a package search

Hm. Lemme just uninstall that. Don't need that. Wait. Is that netfilter or iptables?

Erm no, you should leave that installed.

How do you see if something is installed when you search for packages?

dnf list installed | grep

Okay

Erm no, you should leave that installed.

I know, but I don't care if my system breaks

That it crashes likely has to do with a weird systemd dependecy

There will be absolutely no consequences

That it crashes likely has to do with a weird systemd dependecy

Can you switch to upstart or something?

No.

Weird as in "service x didnt start"

Or "it somehow depends wired to be connected because bug"

But to be honest i've never seen firewalld break ever before.

did you remove things you perceived as "bloat" even tough they werent?

Nope

I had a base netinstall

With just a command line

I just installed stuff

https://pastebin.com/FZchiTsP

This is my root's .bash_history

You can see all the commands I've executed since the install

But to be clear, it doesnt offer you to sing into root account/system management when firewalld fails or offers to continue anyay with ctrl-d?

Nope

No backup prompt

And what did you install grub-customizer for?

Also try booting into fedora-rescue instead in grub

it should ignore all services and just boot into a plain rescue fedora

And what did you install grub-customizer for?

Oh I just wanted to change the default boot option to my Linux Mint install

In case someone who doesn't want to deal with arch or fedora boots

Like my parents

Also try booting into fedora-rescue instead in grub

Okay

Do you need more logs? If chroot will work, that'll be better

I... dont know why it failed.

It just doesnt start

for whatever weird reason.

hehe. Let's see. Lemme boot into rescue

Gonna go offline for a sec

ERROR: S client not available

if you get to rescue: systemctl disable firewalld systemctl mask firewalld

that will keep firewalld disabled for the next reboot - then you can test what caused the problem while it runs.

It might just be taking a long time to boot

Because other jobs are failing too

Still waiting on rescue to boot...

More services failed

I'm gonna wait more now

Still nothing...

switch ttys?

Nope. Not working

Did you really only change things you ran in bash there then?

Yup

Just one session on my installation

Nothing else

Because this is a severely crashing thing. i wonder if one could replay that and get the same result.

I didn't have sudo rights to my user

Just the root user

Because this is a severely crashing thing. i wonder if one could replay that and get the same result.

Maybe I should try

That'd be fun - if yes sumbit your history and crash upstream ^^

Cool. Imma do it now

does anyone know when KDE Plasma will ship with Wayland by default on Fedora ? i know it works on Gnome already

It's in discussion in the KDE Spin ML

It's in discussion in the KDE Spin ML

nice! thanks for the reply Eduard

Np

I just casually read that thread today

I've disabled network manager, sssd, systemd-logind, and sshd

Still not booting

Currently stuck here

Oh wait
