This is an error during boot. I don't see anything logged in any logs (boot, system, messages), so I can't capture it in full. This is transcribed:
Code:
vm': No such process
/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/static-nodes-permissions.conf:20: Failed to resolve group 'k 
vm': No such process
 * ERROR: systemd-tmpfiles-setup-dev failed to start
It seems to produce similar messages for each of the 'kvm' lines (there are more, but they disappear too quickly):
Code:
$ cat -n /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/static-nodes-permissions.conf

No, the group does not exist.

kvm isn't a historically standard group as far as I know, so it shouldn't be required.

Can the error be silenced, or is that a limitation of openrc?

Separately, it seems like it should be logged to boot. Other openrc stuff is logged.

EDIT: This has been happening for a while, though I mostly ignored it.
