How does this work? It doesn't do anything for me for some reason.

I'll fix it

WARNING: installing molly-guard (version 0.5.1-2 in my case) might cause your machine to be unable to boot. The package is in conflict with systemd-sysvcompat, so it had to be removed. So "reboot" and "shutdown" commands disappeared. I had to reboot the system with "systemctl reboot". Then, the system did not boot up, because /sbin/init missing. I recovered by booting with init=/lib/systemd/systemd kernel param, uninstalling molly-guard and installing systemd-sysvcompat again.

Thanks for the swift response :) Just tried the updated PKGBUILD. Haven't restarted, but I can already see that /sbin/init is missing. I suppose something could go wrong with the sed magic at work, but that stuff is way over my head.

What about this: https://open.tf/~mortzu/files/molly-guard-0.5.1-2.src.tar.gz

I bumped molly-guard to the latest version. Inspecting the contents of the package does not yield any hint for overwriting /sbin/init or something along those lines. molly-guard itself has not coped well with the change to systemd and the /usr/bin-merge, so maybe it is time to drop this package completely. @ooijevaer: please tell me, if this package works for you now.

tomasstorck commented on 2015-01-08 11:22 (UTC)

Something is *very* wrong. Installation with all the defaults causes /sbin/init to disappear on both my machines, leading to the error at boot: "ERROR: Root device mounted successfully, but /sbin/init does not exist. Bailing out, you are on your own. Good luck." In case anyone runs into this, you'll need to: * chroot into your installation (chroot new_root) * remove molly-guard (pacman -Rsc molly-guard) * recreate the link for /sbin/init as a workaround (ln ../lib/systemd/systemd /sbin/init) At this point you should be able to boot, but shutdown and all other commands overwritten by molly-guard are still lost and /usr/bin/init is not a link but a file. To fix this, after rebooting: * remove /usr/bin/init (mv /usr/bin/init{,.bu}) * reinstall base and base-devel (pacman -S base base-devel) kritztopf, are you still maintaining this package and can you reproduce this? I'll file for deletion if I don't hear back in a couple days.
