All,

I want to convert the growroot functionality to a proper systemd service
but I'm struggling. I (think I) want it to run and finish before the
filesystems are checked and before /sysroot is mounted. For testing
purposes, I replaced the growroot script with a simple script that sleeps
for 5 seconds and emits debug messages at the beginning and at the end.
What I end up with is that fsck is started before growroot and I can't seem
to figure out why that is. What I have at the moment is:

[Unit]
Description=Grow the root partition
After=systemd-readahead-collect.service systemd-readahead-replay.service
Before=systemd-fsck@.service sysroot.mount

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/bin/growroot
StandardOutput=syslog+console
StandardError=syslog+console
RemainAfterExit=yes

And the log:

[  OK  ] Reached target System Initialization.

What am I missing?

Also, I suspect I need to add this service to a target unit. What would be
the most appropriate one? Currently it's initrd.target.

Thanks
