Joe, you seem to have a very strange interpretation of how the openSUSE Project works. Things move forward based on consensus and initiative.

By my last understanding, it was that it would be made to support a separate /usr partition -- by forcing it to mount the hard disks first, before starting all the 'application' software that depends on /usr.... But that was my impression....
I'm just wondering if that was my wishful thinking or if that was really the consensus.... since if it wasn't the case, then I question the idea of it being consensus driven....
Linda, A status email for systemd came out today. It listed making it possible for /usr to be mounted early as a todo. But the systemd maintainer also said it was not something he could address and was looking for developer help to make it a reality. So it appears the consensus choice to support is was agreed, but no one has agreed to make it happen. The joy of a do-opoly. Hopefully one of the many people who said they need it has the skills and will step up to the plate. Or one of the Suse managers will agree its important enough to task one of their staff to address it. I also never got an answer to my question about systems being upgraded. Is the plan to leave the current init system in place for those systems, or will 12.1 have a forced migration to systemd. Maybe that can't be answered yet, but I saw no feedback at all from the maintainers, etc. Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
