Hello.

I updated my gentoo installation which was last updated 2 months ago with a typical update process:

Code:
emerge -vuND world
perl-cleaner --all
revdep-rebuild
emerge --depclean
revdep-rebuild
emerge @preserved-rebuild


I'll also updated the kernel from 4.19.97 to 5.4.38 in this process. However OpenRC has not been updated according to the list of emerge -ptvuND world.

The boot runs into this problem:

Code:
INIT: version 2.93 booting

   OpenRC 0.42.1 is starting up Gentoo Linux (x86_64)

 * Mounting /proc ...
 * Mounting /run ...
random: fast init done
 * /run/openrc: creating directory
 * /run/lock: creating directory
 * /run/lock: correcting owner
 * Caching service dependencies ...
 * ERROR: cannot start sysfs as fsck would not start
 * ERROR: cannot start devfs as sysfs would not start
 * ERROR: cannot start udev as devfs would not start


And so forth...

How can I find why the system doesn't boot up? It doesn't output any error message. Adding or removing fsck from boot doesn't change anything. Can there be a circular dependency in some config or init-script?

I found the problem. My /etc/rc.conf contained:
Code:
rc_need="net.eth0"


However, it's strange that this leads to a problem right now, with the latest update.
