Several hours ago I did a zypper dup on a Tumbleweed system. The next several boots took an eternity each to complete, and made a mess of boot message output until I figured out systemd had been installed. The init command was broken for switching among runlevels, keyboard was producing unexpected behavior, and boot was producing messages about problems with *.services.
The fix was simple enough: 'zypper rm systemd systemd-sysvinit; zypper al systemd'.
I realize Tumbleweed is rather young and somewhat experimental, but a testbed for systemd development it should not be. That's Factory's job, right?
Yes, and systemd should not be enabled by default in Tumbleweed (yet), so I find the above boot problem very strange as it doesn't happen here for me on my test systems, or my main development machine.
Are you sure you aren't enabling systemd on your boot somehow accidentally?
I can't imagine how that might be possible.
