I routinely scan dmesg for certain keywords that might indicate potential problems
in my Knoppix LiveUSB. I use the following simple bash program for this:
Applying this scan to Knoppix 7.7.0, I get the following report:Code:knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ alias | grep dmx alias dmx='for j in { warn fail error corrupt }; do dmesg | grep -i $j; done'
For reference,Code:knoppix@Microknoppix: ~$ dmx [ 6.278315] UDF-fs: warning (device sda): udf_fill_super: No partition found (2) [ 6.358741] UDF-fs: warning (device sdb): udf_fill_super: No partition found (2) [ 6.474193] UDF-fs: warning (device sdc): udf_fill_super: No partition found (2) [ 11.315379] systemd-udevd[2311]: Process '/usr/sbin/alsactl -E HOME=/var/run/alsa restore 0' failed with exit code 99. [ 14.464064] systemd-udevd[2363]: Process '/usr/sbin/alsactl -E HOME=/var/run/alsa restore 0' failed with exit code 99. [ 17.338552] systemd-logind[2600]: Failed to start user service, ignoring: Unknown unit: user@1000.serviceI am not aware of any actual difficulties in using Knoppix 7.7.0 as a LiveUSB thatCode:knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ dmesg | grep -i starting [ 10.763121] systemd-udevd[2297]: starting version 228
these warning or failure messages would seem to presage. I am assuming that these
are merely inconsequential artifacts related to having systsemd 'present but not
being used', whatever that means.
