Further data, the problems started in 3.2.6. The render group has been fixed in 3.2.7 but the reference to the kvm group remains:

If i understand right, we need to add kvm to groups. If so, we also could remove systemd-journal group from the sysv-variant:

I'll work on this tomorrow.

Fixed at revision 11483.

I didn't see the change to /etc/group or eudev in r11483. Maybe Bruce forgot to commit changes in chapter06/createfiles.xml?

[Bruce Dubbs]

I have more than one copy of the book and made the change in the one I did not commit. Fixed.
