I use sysvinit.
Dear Mike,
This is a bit of an offshoot but if I recall you were the one who told me you use Debian
with sysvinit. How did you manage to get it to work? I use Devuan at the moment (albeit
with almost every TDE app memory leaking..), but I am aware Debian is opening up to more
init systems. I tried Debian a month or so ago and following the wiki's guide to
switch inits during installation. While I was successful in changing to sysvinit, I
couldn't install packages like synaptic (and more) without it prompting to replace
sysvinit with systemd again. Is there something you did to prevent this?
