NEW ARMv5te RootFS with Systemd (Please Test)

[sambul13]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('xenoxaos', 'W')e will most likely NOT update any ARMv5 rootfs beyond 3.1 because of the uboot issue.

Maybe slightly offtopic but... I had an impression that systemd was unusable on these devices (I don't know from, maybe I read it somewhere here). Can I assume that with up-to-date system (with new uboot) we can give systemd a chance (GoFlex Net)?

Going back on topic, I hope I can try this rootfs tomorrow, will report back.

Pogoplug v1/v2/v4, DockStar, GoFlex
That's what the section of this topic is, so good for that.
Not for pro, etc

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pepedog', 'A')lso, I think that as most arm devices don't have a realtime clock a package is needed along the lines of fakeclock, and an ntpd service
I think this could be adapted http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=21765
I have been working too on a new rootfs, don't get "Cannot add dependency job for unit display-manager.service" myself

[pepedog]

Yes, but if date isn't near the mark, if you choose package ntpd it may fail.
Then again if you have no network it will have the 1970 date

[sambul13]

Actually, on Dockstar its 1969 for some unspecified reason.

[WarheadsSE]

UTC - your timezone?

[sambul13]

Yes, but I have no problems with ntpd whatsoever, unless network is off.

[pepedog]

Yes, but we are discussing new rootfs where there is no ntpd or openntpd installed
Which leads me to
ls /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/
dhcpcd@eth0.service remote-fs.target sshdgenkeys.service sshd.service
No syslog service, I was working on a fakeclock and noticed this
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'systemctl enable syslog-ng')
No cron
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'systemctl enable cronie')
And I just got my fakeclock running and tested
I see that initscripts is finished, BTW https://www.archlinux.org/news/end-of-initscripts-support/
Not that there is anything wrong with dhcpcd@eth0.service but netcfg or NetworkManager is recommended. A very small amount of work with netcfg means switching to a static ip is easy
