In this case, the system manager will generate a - transient machine ID file on a memory file system, and mount it - over <filename>/etc/machine-id</filename>, during the early boot - phase. This service is then invoked in a later boot phase, as soon - as <filename>/etc</filename> has been remounted writable and the - ID may thus be committed to disk to make it permanent.</para> - </refsect1> - - <refsect1> - <title>See Also</title> - <para> - <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>, - <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-machine-id-setup</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>, - <citerefentry><refentrytitle>machine-id</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>, - <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-firstboot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> - </para> - </refsect1> - -</refentry> |
