<title>Description</title>
<para><command>systemd-firstboot</command> initializes the most
basic system settings interactively on the first boot, or
optionally non-interactively when a system image is created.
The service is started if <varname>ConditionFirstBoot=yes</varname>
is satisfied. This essentially means that <filename>/etc</filename>
is empty, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.unit</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details.</para>
<para>The following settings may be set up:</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>The system locale, more specifically the two
locale variables <varname>LANG=</varname> and
<varname>LC_MESSAGES</varname></para></listitem>
<listitem><para>The system keyboard map</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>The system time zone</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>The system hostname</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>The machine ID of the system</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>The root user's password</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>Each of the fields may either be queried interactively by
users, set non-interactively on the tool's command line, or be
copied from a host system that is used to set up the system
image.</para>
<para>If a setting is already initialized, it will not be
overwritten and the user will not be prompted for the
setting.</para>
<para>Note that this tool operates directly on the file system and
does not involve any running system services, unlike
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>localectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>timedatectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
or
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>hostnamectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
This allows <command>systemd-firstboot</command> to operate on
mounted but not booted disk images and in early boot. It is not
recommended to use <command>systemd-firstboot</command> on the
running system while it is up.</para>

<title>Options</title>
<para>The following options are understood:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--root=<replaceable>root</replaceable></option></term>
<listitem><para>Takes a directory path as an argument. All
paths will be prefixed with the given alternate
<replaceable>root</replaceable> path, including config search
paths. This is useful to operate on a system image mounted to
the specified directory instead of the host system itself.
</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--image=<replaceable>path</replaceable></option></term>
<listitem><para>Takes a path to a disk image file or block device node. If specified all operations
are applied to file system in the indicated disk image. This is similar to <option>--root=</option>
but operates on file systems stored in disk images or block devices. The disk image should either
contain just a file system or a set of file systems within a GPT partition table, following the
<ulink url="https://systemd.io/DISCOVERABLE_PARTITIONS">Discoverable Partitions
Specification</ulink>. For further information on supported disk images, see
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-nspawn</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s

<term><option>--locale-messages=<replaceable>LOCALE</replaceable></option></term>
<listitem><para>Sets the system locale, more specifically the
<varname>LANG=</varname> and <varname>LC_MESSAGES</varname>
settings. The argument should be a valid locale identifier,
such as <literal>de_DE.UTF-8</literal>. This controls the
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>locale.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
configuration file.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--keymap=<replaceable>KEYMAP</replaceable></option></term>
<listitem><para>Sets the system keyboard layout. The argument should be a valid keyboard map,
such as <literal>de-latin1</literal>. This controls the <literal>KEYMAP</literal> entry in the
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>vconsole.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
configuration file.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--timezone=<replaceable>TIMEZONE</replaceable></option></term>
<listitem><para>Sets the system time zone. The argument should
be a valid time zone identifier, such as
<literal>Europe/Berlin</literal>. This controls the

symlink.</para></listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>--hostname=<replaceable>HOSTNAME</replaceable></option></term>
<listitem><para>Sets the system hostname. The argument should
be a hostname, compatible with DNS. This controls the

<term><option>--root-password-file=<replaceable>PATH</replaceable></option></term>
<term><option>--root-password-hashed=<replaceable>HASHED_PASSWORD</replaceable></option></term>
<listitem><para>Sets the password of the system's root user. This creates/modifies the

<citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>shadow</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
files. This setting exists in three forms: <option>--root-password=</option> accepts the password to
set directly on the command line, <option>--root-password-file=</option> reads it from a file and
<option>--root-password-hashed=</option> accepts an already hashed password on the command line. See
<citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>shadow</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information on the format of the hashed password. Note that it is not recommended to specify
plaintext passwords on the command line, as other users might be able to see them simply by invoking
<citerefentry project='die-net'><refentrytitle>ps</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
