Hi,

I know the espressobin is not a currently supported board. That being said, I am happily running a Fedora 27 root filesystem on one with a self compiled kernel.

I've had reports it works fine with standard Fedora kernel on F-28, my guess your missing something in your kernel but as it's extremely hard to debug custom kernels and you've given no details as to what kernel etc your using my guess is your missing a kernel feature that systemd needs.

The remaining thing we need for support for F-28 is a sane u-boot that supports uEFI, it's on my list to look at but I've not had time and I'm awaiting the next release of the Marvel ATF which is apparently due "soon".

Fedora 28 root filesystem halts at boot with system freezing execution.

Fedora rawhide boots ok.

Looking into differences between 28 and rawhide I see the following:

Fedora rawhide

/usr/lib/systemd/systemd --version

systemd 238

+PAM +AUDIT +SELINUX +IMA -APPARMOR +SMACK +SYSVINIT +UTMP +LIBCRYPTSETUP +GCRYPT +GNUTLS +ACL +XZ +LZ4 +SECCOMP +BLKID +ELFUTILS +KMOD +IDN2 -IDN +PCRE2 default-hierarchy=hybrid

ls -l /usr/lib/systemd/systemd

dnf list systemd

Fedora 28

/usr/lib/systemd/systemd --version

systemd 238

+PAM +AUDIT +SELINUX +IMA -APPARMOR +SMACK +SYSVINIT +UTMP +LIBCRYPTSETUP +GCRYPT +GNUTLS +ACL +XZ +LZ4 +SECCOMP +BLKID +ELFUTILS +KMOD +IDN2 -IDN +PCRE2 default-hierarchy=hybrid

ls -l /usr/lib/systemd/systemd

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1735240 May 11 07:08 /usr/lib/systemd/systemd

dnf list systemd

systemd.aarch64 238-8.git0e0aa59.fc28 @updates

Which looks pretty darn similar to me, down to the git revision.

So, I am wondering where I would begin to look as to why one works and one fails (on the espressobin).

Would I grab the source RPM’s and see if there is a difference in compiler flags? Or maybe just a difference in compiler versions?

Is it likely that the Fedora 28 version actually has a patch or patches that are not yet in rawhidhttps://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=883690e?

Is there any chance that this issue is related to this debian issue : https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=883690

Thanks for any input. This is NOT a big problem for me.
