Is there a reason this line is still added to fstab on installations?
- Code:
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
It is deprecated as stated
in the Debian fstab wiki:
It is not necessary to list /proc and /sys in the fstab unless some special options are needed. The boot system will always mount them.
It raises hell with systemd when you add anything new to fstab after installations and removing that line eliminates a 90 second delay for a Start Job on bootup ... You can read
about the issue here and
also here at VSIDO

Thanks! You'll see that change in the next version. Meanwhile, change
- Code:
echo -e "proc\t\t/proc\tproc\tdefaults\t0\t0
$install_part\t/\t$fs_type_os\tdefaults,noatime\t0\t1" >> /target/etc/fstab
to this:
- Code:
echo -e "$install_part\t/\t$fs_type_os\tdefaults,noatime\t0\t1" >> /target/etc/fstab
Do I need to add a "Make no fstab" option for the systemd users?

Thank you...
No I do not think a new option is necessary.. it looks like that is the only line that matters from a fstab and systemd perspective... every systemd user is stating that removing that line is the easiest solution
I appreciate this fsmithred

Are you saying that systemd doesn't use fstab?
... ah, does use it, put proc gives problems?
(but then: what doesn't give problems?)

Yes nadir. The unneeded proc line causes systemd to pause 90 seconds at boot doing a Start Job because it knows proc is not necessary
Not sure what you mean by the last statement

Systemd is moving toward having no fstab. It might even be optional at this point. I don't know. I've read about it in the past, but I don't have any links. Maybe LP's blog.

Still getting the proc line added to fstab even after adding that...
I verified it was correctly edited in refractainstaller-yad (on the installed medium)
This is editing and using refractainstaller-yad

That is easy: i meant that there is no need to dig deep for problems in systemd, as the obvious ones are more than enough.
Most of the time you will get told that it is a) a feature or b) that it can be configured (or usually you will be called a troll with no clue).

I dig deep at all issues no matter the politics or BS behind it and give no shits to anyone disagreeing .. If people do not want or like systemd, that's their issue not mine
