as described in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=877992#10 I had postfix bound with "inet_interfaces=" to a specific IP (which was not available in early bootstage). /lib/systemd/system-generators/postfix-instance-generator is doing a the following: if [ -f /etc/postfix/main.cf ]; then for NAME in $(postmulti -l -a | awk '{ print $1}'); do ln -s "$SERVICEFILE" "$WANTDIR/postfix@$NAME.service" done else ln -s "$SERVICEFILE" "$WANTDIR/postfix@-.service" fi As "postmulti -l -a" failed in early bootstage in my case, it doesn't generate the needed links. I worked around the problem by removing the inet_interfaces-config statement. As every other reporter is affected at boot time, this seems the source of the problem. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=877992#20 indicates the same and a reinstall seems to trigger generating the links. I guess "postmulti -l -a" doesn't fail when the system is up and running, but in early boot stage. For everybody affected. You can try to boot into "/bin/sh" by adding "init=/bin/sh" to your bootprompt. Be aware you will have no network in this case. I reproduced the issue in this case by running: # ip link set lo up # postmulti -l -a Cheers, Jan.
