For reasons understandable only to systemd, it tried to modprobe vmhgfs and didn't find it in the initramfs. Does this configuration actually *need* a vmware shared folder in order to boot? If so, you'll need to tell your dracut/ mkinitramfs/whatever command to include it. If not, you'll need to tell it to not look for it. (Particularly annoying - dracut will include that systemd unit even if you have a kernel that doesn't need any modules to boot because all the requisites are built-in, you said --no-kernel to not include kernel modules in the initramfs, and you gave it -o "kernel-modules kernel-modules-extra kernel-network-modules" to omit those dracut modules from the run. I submitted a patch that was rejected, because apparently *some* places build an initramfs with 'dracut --no-kernel' and then append another cpio image that contains kernel modules, and the patch would break that. This is why we can't have nice things.) --==_Exmh_1624689579_28002P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Exmh version 2.9.0 11/07/2018 iQIVAwUBYNbLqwdmEQWDXROgAQL+JA/7B/M0kkyoRSPBm3v9HNyDu0x5yVNa6Dsr rKBk97Dr4riok9BQ2cmXLoiWdX9yHGAjWE2r+BGfxZ9l/+ae3rEZP5XpIs963CQ1 WDqfr6dN7igj+0or+lVY4zgfRrAr8zs6MPboSpclwN9rt9nH77VoikKjZQnZfFGe nPiZwdixYyyNIWlBNluA0m4VG00Gi4DB/kPwirg88Kv9O1KV8pLB2OBQdTAgX505 FxjrFnFYEW7zbA9poyitAFGDtwnobfSd4dyLTDuErCaKTiGbdoUkc+ZV2lDV8QZ8 TbVBl2Rhkh2UwOhTjC9IycG3X7TVlfEQZBG53FpEO0jMGjB7Wn8WQlTr1pLFf7oL XfXf3f0BCXm/Bt08k8VAznYEJO1X947MWKrq05TNFSSTZxXVs0UVqClxQ+ZmrNZd 3v21G4CwJiInBIuOqzxMS2G7q5B01OxH/87W8yqqN/XAhNhv8iI+eDrn3EriE0kN XH4fOZTBR9uxnCMhSzkN6UKdVFs17Npv/IlpKEtxCU72nK3u/qZ23YNjCYacjnNq ViWIbL5kzdNGg4yghfSzJqRWQs3Xst0/8sR/fDPwa4/UdMC7oaMBZtg9r7MX1Zp9 7U0knHCX1DCEr1iuvhdN897cO0h8tm0/lIBBuxtmpVXhABQHvu2fKjWumur/+yJt lSUDNhw09i4= =a4b4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1624689579_28002P-- --===============5343226455322701468== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies --===============5343226455322701468==--
