Allegedly, on or about 24 June 2018, Patrick O'Callaghan sent: > Note that you now have to explicitly enable rc.local to make it run > at boot time: > > # systemctl enable rc-local.service I just did that, and nothing more (I hadn't, yet, got around to making a rc.local file and putting anything in it), and got this back in terminal: # systemctl enable rc-local.service The unit files have no installation config (WantedBy, RequiredBy, Also, Alias settings in the [Install] section, and DefaultInstance for template units). This means they are not meant to be enabled using systemctl. Possible reasons for having this kind of units are: 1) A unit may be statically enabled by being symlinked from another unit's .wants/ or .requires/ directory. 2) A unit's purpose may be to act as a helper for some other unit which has a requirement dependency on it. 3) A unit may be started when needed via activation (socket, path, timer, D-Bus, udev, scripted systemctl call, ...). 4) In case of template units, the unit is meant to be enabled with some instance name specified. My intention was to put this in rc.local, so I didn't have to keep issuing the commands, as root, every bootup: #!/bin/sh # # plugged in SD CARDs have wrong filedates, this is to correct that: hwclock --systohc --utc hwclock --hctosys --utc -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 4.16.11-100.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 22 20:02:12 UTC 2018 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
