    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Ahead of the holidays systemd 255 has debuted as stable and comes with systemd-bsod as a “Blue Screen of Death” service capable of displaying full-screen error messages on Linux.

    This is intended as a tool for displaying emergency log messages full-screen on boot failures.

    The systemd-bsod will also display a QR code for getting more information on the error causing the boot failure.

    • Systemd’s bootctl will now show whether the system was booted from a Unified Kernel Image (UKI).

    • systemctl will now automatically soft-reboot into a new root file-system if found under /run/nextroot/ when a reboot operation is invoked.

    • A new option “SurveFinalKillSignal” has been added to skip the final SIGTERM/SIGKILL spree on shutdown in order to survive soft-reboot operation.
