I'd like to know what the big vendors are thinking about this. Introducing risks due lazy/snooty systemd developers can not be a reason to ignore well-founded and common rules how to handle big severs.
Most of the 'lazy/snooty systemd developers' work for the biggest vendors. :)
Does this mean that IBM will enforce that /usr and other useful partitions will be only avaiable by using initramfs?
Since when does IBM ship openSUSE?
And actually most of the requests what systemd should do come from these vendors and their customers. We declined more requests form them than we have implemented so far.
Defer would be OK, but declined is not that what will help to become systemd accepted as replacement on top of most big servers.
openSUSE doesn't run on big servers so what is the issue? It might be an issue for SLES but that's not expected for another two years and I'm sure SUSE can solve that issue if they want to. Please keep the openSUSE and SUSE discussions separate.
