I installed 4.1 Desktop from the DVD. I followed the defaults in the installer (except for manually making the partitions). It doesn't start anything on boot now. The last things that can be seen on the screen (for example, when booting "failsafe") are: INIT: version 2.86 booting Enter runlevel: 3 INIT: Entering runlevel: 3 INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel (That's me who entered 3 in the second non-empty line.)
Created attachment 3143 [details] /root/.install.log The install log extracted via LiveCD. (I don't care about the plaintext passwords there, I'll change them.)
Created attachment 3144 [details] dmesg.out "dmesg" run in the "single" runlevel, extracted via LiveCD.
Created attachment 3145 [details] mount.out "mount" run in the "single" runlevel, extracted via LiveCD.
Comment on attachment 3145 [details] mount.out (After doing "mount / -o remount,rw", of course.)
(In reply to comment #4) > (From update of attachment 3145 [details]) > (After doing "mount / -o remount,rw", of course.) It was readonly initially in the "single" mode.
Created attachment 3146 [details] df.out "df" run in the "single" runlevel; extracted via LiveCD.
https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17972 looks similar.
Is it because of XFS?
Viewed superficially, it's SysVinit-2.86-alt2 who doesn't do what it is supposed to do.
/sbin/init has nothing to do with FS type. Either initrd.img is not functional or smth odd happened.
/etc/inittab is empty. Ha-ha, this could be the famous misfeature of XFS, which zeroes files left open. (It could be left open by the installer? Perhaps. By another init? Probably not, init doesn't have to open it for writing...)

The stat of /etc/inittab indicates it was "modified" at the last moment of the installation: # find /mnt/sda5/ -newer /mnt/sda5/etc/inittab /mnt/sda5/var/lib/rpm /mnt/sda5/var/run /mnt/sda5/etc /mnt/sda5/etc/mtab /mnt/sda5/root /mnt/sda5/root/tmp /mnt/sda5/root/dmesg.out /mnt/sda5/root/mount.out /mnt/sda5/root/df.out /mnt/sda5/root/.bash_history /mnt/sda5/root/.lesshst #
> Installer does not unmount root fs Yes, it writes in the end: Remains mounted: /destination Remains mounted: /destination/home I performed the installation once again: on XFS, but with slightly different partition layouts and with more packages. This time zeroing of /etc/inittab didn't happen.
В 4.1/branch исправления не будут вноситься уже технически (заглушена очередь на сборку), поэтому прошу ошибки, актуальные для sisyphus/p7/t7, перевесить на текущие ветки или сизиф.
