NAME
systemd-bsod.service, systemd-bsod - Displays boot-time emergency log message in full screen
SYNOPSIS
systemd-bsod.service
-
/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-bsod [OPTIONS...]
DESCRIPTION
systemd-bsod.service
is used to display a blue screen which contains a message relating to a boot failure, including a QR code which can be scanned to get helpful information about the failure.
OPTIONS
The following options are understood by
systemd-bsod:
-h, --help
-
Print a short help text and exit.
--version
-
Print a short version string and exit.
-c, --continuous
-
When specified,
systemd-bsod
waits continuously for changes in the journal if it does not find any emergency messages on the initial attempt.
Added in version 255.
--tty=
-
Specify the TTY to output to. By default,
systemd-bsod
will automatically find a free VT to display the message on. If this option is specified a TTY may be selected explicitly. Use
--tty=/dev/tty
to direct output to the terminal the command is invoked on.
Added in version 256.
EXIT STATUS
On success (displaying the journal message successfully), 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
