It's a known problem. There's no solution (yet) but there are some workarounds. I'm a little surprised you didn't find our discussion -
going-with-the-systemd-flow-or-not-t422-110.html#p43141. You could install systemd. Then your snapshots will boot. Which is great, unless you don't want systemd.
2. You could downgrade util-linux from version 2.25 to 2.20. Then your snapshots will boot. Right now, the Refracta testing isos have util-linux pinned at that older version, and things seem to be working. There's no guarantee that things will continue to work after future upgrades.
3. You could leave it the way it is, and at the boot menu, add
- Code:
init=/bin/bash
to the kernel line. Then, when you get the command prompt, issue the following commands.
- Code:
service udev start
exec /sbin/init
Note: I haven't looked at thwak's links yet. I'll be back to this thread if there's a solution there. And I'll be back to the thread I linked above to report on my latest attempt.
Edit: fixed that last command above: '
exec /sbin/init'
