szp Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Armbianmonitor: http://ix.io/1ZZz Hi there, I was expecting /etc/machine-id to be unique for every install, but it is static which was very unexpected (I use it as the basis of machine-specific identifier which should have been globally unique). fixing it up was easy enough: rm -f /etc/machine-id rm -f /var/lib/dbus/machine-id dbus-uuidgen --ensure systemd-machine-id-setup Shouldn't this be done when the root fs is being resized on the first boot?

Check around on the threads here - I do recall this popping up before, and there was a solution to establish a UUID on initial startup for systemd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want that this way also works: https://www.armbian.com/get-involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
