Hi,

I did test it, but it seems there’s “something” that sometimes leads to
a startup failure and subsequent respawn of the Shepherd service (it can
be seen in the output of “herd status childhurd”).  Typically if I “herd
restart childhurd” it then proceeds and works.

To be continued…

Thanks for testing!

Ludo’.
