FWIW, I am running Devuan Jessie with Trinity R14.0.6. Most of my issues have disappeared since switching to Devuan (and prying myself free of systemd). I recommend the netinstall disc, for me it worked better than their DVD.
I truly hate to say negative things about anything, but as an FYI Devuan had/has a bug with unmounting LUKS root partitions (and possibly all encrypted partitions, but I didn’t test for that after seeing root shutdown unclean) which will eventually cause file system corruption.
Can you point to a reference for this bug?
I have a setup with the root partition in a logical Volume of LVM on top of LUKS (whole disk but /boot) and haven't seen such problems as file system corruptions yet.
I am seeing messages during shutdown like this, though, which are indicating a known bug in Debian's cryptsetup package¹, which is used by Devuan:
Stopping remaining crypt disks...sda2_crypt(busy)
Did you mean this bug/error? There's a patch which solves it², but I don't know if it already was merged in the official repositories.
Kind regards, Stefan
