Important log errors in new install of Silverblue

[toughdblue]

Hi everyone,

A few days ago I installed Silverblue on a brand new AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 w/ Radeon 890M laptop and yesterday I looked at the logs app and noticed in the “Important” tab several errors. Can someone please help me resolve them? Here are the errors:

gkr-pam: unable to locate daemon control file

“/root” already exists and is not a directory. (3)

“/srv” already exists and is not a directory.

“/home” already exists and is not a directory.

Failed to start systemd-remount-fs.service - Remount Root and Kernel File Systems.

/usr/bin/mount for / exited with exit status 32.(2)

gkr-pam: unable to locate daemon control file

I’m also seeing this and reopened Bug 2298941 - gkr-pam: unable to locate daemon control file

@toughdblue

"/root" already exists and is not a directory. (3)
"/srv" already exists and is not a directory.
"/home" already exists and is not a directory.

I also ran into those and reported them here as they are specific to atomic desktops.

Failed to start systemd-remount-fs.service - Remount Root and Kernel File Systems.
/usr/bin/mount for / exited with exit status 32.(2)

This has been reported in bugzilla: Bug 2348934 - systemd-remount-fs.service fails on boot of Silverblue - “mount: /: fsconfig system call failed: overlay: No changes allowed in reconfigure”

As far as I can tell, none of these errors actually point to problems.

PS: Please use the code formatting for code for readability.

Thank you for the detailed reply and links. Hopefully the errors will get resolved soon. Can you explain what you mean by, “Please use the code formatting for code for readability”? Sorry I’m new here.

No worries. In the editor, there is a button </>, which formats code in a different color and with a monospace font. This is usually done to avoid “intelligent” formating changes by the forum software, such as replacing quotation marks " by “ and ”, or replacing two single dashes -- by an em dash –. In these cases, searching for the “intelligent” formatted text gives different results than searching for the original log entries.

Got it. Thank you!
