• systemd-journald.service not starting on linux-image-amd64 (6.1.0-29 an

    Dear kernel maintainers,

    I am a bit torn if I should report a bug on behalf of reports by others.
    If you think I should report a bug, I'll be happy to do so, otherwise
    kindly see this as an FYI.

    On Reddit there are several users that have experienced bugs in regards
    to not begin able to start systemd-journald.service with kernels
    6.1.0-29, -30 and my assumption is also -31 from bookworm. This results
    in their machine not being bootable.

    I've been asking users to report the bug, but it seems they are willing
    to keep booting an older kernel and forego on reporting a bug. I myself
    don't have any issues with the kernel nor are there any follow-ups to
    the threads.

    The only thing I know there has been a change between -28 and -29 that
    triggers this behaviour. Perhaps any of you know what the cause might be
    based on the changelog(s).
