I used to boot with init until the update to openSUSE 12.1 changed it to systemd without asking me. Since then I've had many problems of all kinds with the new boot procedure and my take about it is: it weren't broke, so why the hell did they gone fixt it?
It looks like the "old" sysvinit won't be maintained in the future. Nevertheless many people agree with you - the switch was too early. I also had some "fun" with systemd in the beta phase. OTOH, I'm using systemd (from the 12.1 update repo) without problems on some servers and my laptop, so it is definitely getting better.
I don't know how to go back to booting with init, inittab, etc., and if I did, I would.
For a temporary test, you can select sysvinit as init system in grub or use the additional boot parameter init=/sbin/sysvinit If you want to switch back to sysvinit permanently, run zypper in sysvinit-init It will suggest the removal of systemd-sysvinit. Does booting with sysvinit mount your swap files? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
