Generators are run very early at boot and cannot rely on
any external services. They may not talk to any other
process. That includes simple things such as logging to
- <citerefentry
- project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+ <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
or <command>systemd</command> itself (this means: no
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>!). They
- can however rely on the most basic kernel functionality to
- be available, including a mounted <filename>/sys</filename>,
- <filename>/proc</filename>, <filename>/dev</filename>.
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>)!.
+ Non-essential file systems like
