Dear Daan,
Am 29.04.23 um 17:43 schrieb Daan De Meyer:
Systemd does a preset on first boot when there's no machine ID yet. If
no preset from a preset file applies, the default is to enable it.
Since debian does not ship a 99-disable.preset with disable * in it,
all services are enabled on firstboot on Debian.
What would you then suggest:
a. Disable every single service unit after copy to the
/lib/systemd/system location manually?
b. Add a 99-disable.preset file with 'disable *'? (I wonder why Debian
does not have it and if it then may brake something)
Thanks,
Martin

=========================================
tavla-test.service is 'enabled' (and started), but I never enabled
it.
It was enabled after I removed machine-id and did a reboot. Before
that,
it was disabled. The service unit
('/lib/systemd/system/tavla-test.service') was copied to this
location
during image build after debootstrap and apt installation of systemd.
Here is the only preset ('90-systemd.preset'):
