d is trying to get sysusers up "too early", before the root file system is pivoted-in? Feeding my search engine with "NFS root" and +systemd turns up a bunch of interesting suggestions (e.g. network has to be up before NFS has to be mounted, etc:). Good luck... and tell us what it was ;-) Cheers -- t signature.asc Description: PGP signature
