ok this seems to be caused by the tmp.mount unit, that is generated from /etc/fstab. Mounting a tmpfs over /tmp will make existing files inaccessible, so it has to be done as early as possible, i.e. `Before=basic.target`. It has to occur reliable before live- config.service invokes, so `WantedBy=live-config.service`. And the construct is activated by a symlink `/etc/systemd/system/live- config.service.wants/tmp.mount -> /etc/systemd/system/tmp.mount`.. that's my solution for now. : ) ** Attachment added: "config/includes.chroot/etc/systemd/system/tmp.mount" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/1754777/+attachment/5201833/+files/tmp.mount -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754777 Title: bionic casper nfsboot not reaching desktop env, failure to mount various kernel filesystems and /tmp Status in casper package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: 1st of all, i am successfully using casper netboot with this distros: menu label Ubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release i386 menu label Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Beta amd64 menu label Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 menu label Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release i386 but not with menu label Ubuntu 18.04 LTS "Bionic Beaver" - Alpha amd64 boot process gets to the point of running this services dev-hugepages.mount dev-mqueue.mount sys-fs-fuse-connections.mount sys-kernel-config.mount sys-kernel-debug.mount tmp.mount and it stops in emergency console.
