Re: Bug#790560: udev fails to start on sparc boot, breaking boot
It looks like stdout and/or stderr output is mixed up with the strace
output but it looks udevd is failing because the chdir to / fails.
Notes inline below. (Caution I'm comparing against current systemd git
HEAD and not any specific version)

Cannot see what got us this far but I would guess that it is checking
whether the process is running in a virtualized environment.

This seems to correspond to line 1660
log_warning_errno(r, "failed to parse kernel command line, ignoring: %m");
This failure to parse the kernel command line is not a fatal error but
it might indicate something else is wrong.

Line 1685 is where things fail.
r = chdir("/");
It is not clear whether the code/binary is wrong here i.e. it really is
trying to chdir to "/: %m" or whether it is strace and stderr output
getting mixed up. The error logging function on line 1687 has a %m
r = log_error_errno(errno, "could not change dir to /: %m");
But the %m should have been expanded in the output.
