The change you're suggesting makes sense, but I'd like to try the setup for myself before committing to it. In your experience, is the information found at https://wiki.debian.org/Init#Changing_the_init_system_-_at_installation_time accurate when it comes to switching from systemd to runit? I've successfully used it in the past to test SysV and OpenRC compatibility. Thanks. -- Andrea Bolognani <[email protected]> Resistance is futile, you will be garbage collected.
