Ideally, I'd wish it not to stop sshd when /boot/efi becomes unavailable. Or at least bring back the services it stopped when the emergency shell is canceled.
More practically, and more on topic to the original reason for this bug report, I'd like it if stopping the emergency shell would print a message on the console, so the instructions to press Enter or Ctrl-D do not appear to still be relevant. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1931077 Title: emergency shell ignores all keyboard input Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: An SSD that held my /boot/efi partition failed, took down local-fs.target, which brought up emergency.target. I ended up with no ssh access, and a message on the local console telling me to press Enter to get a root shell, or press Ctrl-D to continue booting normally. The system did not react to either Enter or Ctrl-D. I could switch between virtual consoles (but nothing was running on them, e.g. no getty), toggle Caps Lock, or reboot with Ctrl+Alt+Del. An emergency console that doesn't accept keyboard input is not a useful emergency console.
