I'd recommend taking the time and effort to just forward port the kernel for those devices, considering it's quite out of date and insecure as-is. Or do the work yourself to backport systemd (hint, it might be harder than you think, which is why the dependancy is there...) > At the moment this essentially blocks converting all Ubuntu flavours > to systemd. "all"? Ubuntu ships newer kernels than 3.4, if not, please take it up with that vendor, it's not the community's job to support obsolete, years-old software that everyone has moved on from a long time ago for very good reasons. Remember, never ask a community member to support a business decision of a company, unless you want to show a lack of understanding as to how community-driven software development works. good luck, greg k-h _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
