raspi2 server image : systemd[1]: Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.

[Adam Smith]

Booting the xenial and bionic raspi2 server images we have a rather prominent and off putting systemd failure message.

systemd[1]: Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.

This is essentially Bug #1566468, except that seems to have been solved for all the generic kernels. The raspi2 kernel doesn't have the ib_iser module, nor does it seem appropriate to add it to the kernel. I don't think that hardware will ever be attached to a Raspberry Pi.

Instead, I was wondering if the open-iscsi package could be removed from the raspi2 builds? There is possibly another bug blocking that at the moment - Bug #1630946.

Please re-assign this bug to another package if you think it is more appropriate. Thank you.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I encountered the same problem, which puzzled me, we can add ib_iser.ko and ib_isert.ko and other required libraries to linux-modules-raspi2_18.04.1_arm64.deb, or add to linux-modules-extra -raspi2 ~ 18.04.1_arm64.deb, so that this problem can be solved well. Maybe some special circumstances need to use open-iscsi to call the printer and disk in the LAN.
If it has not been resolved, I think maybe I need to cross-compile a new deb containing the open-iscsi kernel part.

This is now resolved on the focal builds (the open-iscsi modules are not included, but nor does the systemd-modules-load service attempt to load them any more).
