Andrew,

Thanks for this. However, I cannot reproduce on a sysvinit ceres system. I
wonder if it is a failure in the runit dbus scripts?

Is this every time or only the first time?

That sounds as if system dbus isn't running. What is the output of

 ps -lfC dbus-daemon

If the system bus *is* running, what does

 busctl

show?
