I run a stable system using gnome3 and hence systemd, specifically
systemd-236-r5. My bootloader is grub2. I do *not* have an EFI
platform and do *not* have an initramfs.
I do *not* have a separate /usr filesystem.
The news item says that, in preparation for the 237 release and the
likely removal of the symlinks
/usr/lib/systemd/systemd and
/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-shutdown
we should update our boot config to reference init=/lib/systemd/system
1. Updating the boot config to reference init=/lib/systemd/system seems
to mean a 1-line change in /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" -->
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="init=/lib/systemd/systemd"
followed by the usual
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Is that it?
2. What should I be doing to prepare for the removal of the
/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-shutdown symlink?
3. "After upgrading, please run systemctl daemon-reexec". Which
upgrade is being referred to? Is the upgrade to the 237 release, with
the likely removal of the two symlinks.
Thanks in advance,
allan
