would you mind the problem?

i mean i run fedora with systemd on 40 setups, systemd was introdued
with F15 which means 40x14 (currently on F29) *560 dist-upgrades* on
systemd based systems without a single time face the emergency shell or
a really systemd related problem preventing boot

the emergency shell i knwo only from testing vms when i fucked up
somthing on my own coming up give nme the chance to fix it wout boot
from an ISO image

Actually you mix up messages with a single sentence. The last sentence may be
personal opinion, but not the lines before.

Well an actual fact: I upgraded a system yesterday, and I spend about eight
reboots and about 5 hours just to find out WHY systemd booted into an emergency
shell. Compared to the old init I would have found and fixed that in one boot I
guess.

I didn't send my frustration on this to the list, but as you mention it...

OK, I'll write a positive message about systemd: "Great, it made me spend
several hours to find and fix boot problems, where without systemd I would had
just idle time. A great improvement!"
