Is there even one other compelling reason for using systemd? By the way I haven't been able to get systemd to work because I cannot build a boot device that used systemd from a system that is not running systemd, because systemd's configuration programs will edit only the running operating system. I know there is some kind of special "chroot" (because normal "chroot" won't work), which of course, also requires the running operating to be running systemd. Alex
