Just keep it simple. Get a single-user mode situation with a shell.
Nothing  else. That means reduce ALL other noise sources from the
signal. Don't get all sensitive about SystemD.

Which is not necessary as the underlying bug has already been identified and fixes are available.

We’re just missing tests on SPARC T1 and SPARC M7 (or S7 or M8).



I will hunt around and see what I have laying about in a back room.
I know I have old Netra X1 stuff and maybe a few other units with very
old UltraSPARC processors in them. They will be horrifically slow.
The SPARC M7 or M8 will be a unicorn. Heard of only in myth.
