Unfortunately, they tend to fail mostly silently and don't allow the administrator to log in to fix it. I've been using systemd on several systems for a while now and this is consistently the biggest hurdle, in my mind, to making it the default.
Yeah, that's why I'm still having sysvinit installed and just added init=/bin/systemd to my kernel command line. It did not fail for quite some time for me, but if it does, the remedy is to remove the "init=..." and simply boot with old sysvinit. Maybe we could install "old" init as /sbin/sysvinit and symlink init to either sysvinit or systemd. Keep both installed. If systemd fails, "init=/sbin/sysvinit" will boot the old fashioned way. The symlinking could be done by update-alternatives ;) -- Stefan Seyfried "Dispatch war rocket Ajax to bring back his body!" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
