Hello Everyone,
Regarding boot success determination:
For the current Fedora GSoC project that I am participating in, I wrote greenboot, a generic health check framework for systemd: https://github.com/LorbusChris/greenboot
In greenboot, health checks can be defined in the form of scripts and/or systemd units. This could be useful in this case for determining boot success, allowing for more sophisticated checks than just a timer.
Maybe it's a little late to get this into F29, as the project is not in the Fedora repos, yet (it is being build on copr: lorbus/greenboot) and there are still some improvements to be made, but it'll certainly be ready by the time F30 is coming.
WDYT?
Thank you Javier to pointing me to this.
Regards,
Christian Glombek
FAS Lorbus

It'd be nice if there was a way to check grub2-editenv works (some dummy
action that is tested on boot). I've lost the number of times I had to
re-run anaconda on a system just to reinstall the boot stack, because it
tends to bork itself on hardware or selinux changes and there is no
clear way to reinit it.
