Vogon, not Volgan. :) And yes, that issue isn't documented, mainly because it isn't intended to be permanent (systemd will likely grow compatibility with the runlevel specified in inittab somehow). In the meantime, it is mentioned in the systemd FAQ, at http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/FrequentlyAskedQuestions . I was pointing out, though, that the fact that F14a changes the default init system *is* extensively documented, and as your original post's reference to upstart clearly indicated, you hadn't noticed that. If you had it would probably have been more obvious that systemd was the reason it wasn't working, and you'd probably have found the various explanations of the issue. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
