In a previous setup I had 8 runlevels, each configured differently for different purposes. (Before that I had 13, which was back when you could actually set up runlevels a thru f.) It doesn't appear that systemd is capable of that or perhaps it simply won't permit it.
Of course it does; but you have to do that with names. You can create your own targets, which is the systemd terminology. Some things, like calling "init 5" work, they are translated to the proper systemd calls. I don't know if you can create new init letters or numbers, though.
I just checked into replacing systemd with sysvinit and yast wants to uninstall practically everything in addition to systemd.
Of course. The sysvinit package available on 13.1 is not a real sysinit, but a compatibility package. Look at what it contains - I just did, and I will not tell you what I saw :-p Removing the sysinit in, say, 11.2, would also uninstall the entire system. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
