Sorry for the very late reply. I have just today fixed a few issues in my
Debian Live setup and been able to test your changes. Covid has got in the
way of so much and I'm an essential worker.
Anyway ...I did a "regular" build and confirmed it installed systemd-sysv
and then removed
That's fine Lyndon.
I've just come back from lunch and found it didn't complete the build.
Here's the build.log at the failure point.

Oh yes, sorry I should have mentioned - there's nothing I could do to
stop the systemd packages from being downloaded, I could only prevent
them from being installed, so you'll just have to ignore those
'retrieving' and 'validating' lines.
Most of the changes I've made in the fix is actually to
Just to add to the previous message all I want to stop is systemd-sysv
from downloading and installing then being removed . It isn't
efficient and doesn't provide users with much choice.
Thanks again for your efforts.
Cheers.

Hi Lyndon
It appears as though the patch isn't working. Please note below the
relevant section from the build log.

Sorry for the delay. There are several ways to accomplish installing a
copy of the modified code for testing.
The simplest would be if I could wrap it up into a new `.deb` package
for you to simply install, but I'm not familiar enough with debian
packaging to get that done, sorry.
So
Lyndon I really appreciate the effort you put in for this. I probably
will need instructions on how to test with the patch but I will test
it over the next few days and let you know how it goes.
Cheers.
Michael.

Just to update you since my previous reply:
- I've filed a bug report for this issue - #992916 ([1]).
- I've produced a patch (MR found at [2]) that should fix the
broken/incomplete implementation of `--initsystem sysvinit`.
If you could please test this that would be great. It took some hours
I see. As I said, I'm very busy with little to no time to spare for
live-build work / support currently, so I'm afraid there's a limit to
how much I can help with this. However...
The first thing that I would say is that I'm not certain whether a
working sysvinit setup is possible on Debian
Hi Lyndon, thanks for your reply.
My query about "mode" is because I want to use sysvinit instead of
systemd. I can build an MX style system but it always pulls in
systemd-sysv even though it is pinned as don't install.
I tried using Devuan but it doesn't work in live-build anymore, and

The live-build `--mode` option was for allowing for any variations
necessary for building images for derivative distros, like Ubuntu and
"Progress" (which is/was a distro produced by the original live-build
author Daniel B).
In part this includes adjusting labels and filenames. Furthermore it
Hello everyone.
I'm assuming no one has any knowledge of this option and where the
files are that run it then, I know it still works because I have tried
it but I would like to understand it by seeing how and where the
different options are called and used.
Cheers.
Michael.
>In live build and
In live build and associated packages there is an option in the config
file for "mode". It used to have Debian. Progress, and I think Ubuntu.
I am trying to find the files that are associated with this option so
I can look at how each option differs from the others. Does anyone
know which
