Incomplete PATH in scripts for the three stages
linux40 opened this issue · comments
/etc/runit/{1,2,3} set PATH as /usr/bin:/usr/sbin. However, in a fresh installed voidlinux on aarch64 machines via rootfs, many binaries locates at /sbin including mount, and this results failing to boot. The complete value should be:
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
/sbin should just be a symlink to /usr/sbin.
Weird. I checked both the rootfs tarballs and the fresh system, and found that /bin, /sbin, and /usr/sbin all link to /usr/bin. However, I did see init complained it could not find mount and kernel ran into the single-user mode.

how did you install this? was it from a non-aarch64 computer?
I used a debian image to boot, and chroot to the destination. The image sets PATH to /sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin, would this matter?
it shouldn't matter what debian had if you're booting void.
two possibilities I can think of:
- the symlinks are created during package configuration and that somehow didn't happen
- something weird happened during extraction of the rootfs tarball (perhaps it was extracted on a filesystem that doesn't support symlinks?)
Not sure. I will try to change PATH back and see if I will experience the same issue.
