I stand at the brink of Devuan, not quite ready to take the plunge myself, yet
share in your dislike of systemd and how Debian is inching into a rule of the
few over the many. And I fear that it will soon drift into the same kind of
crap that ruined Kubuntu (and the whole Ubuntu family) for me. There are just
one or two refinements I want to make in my current system (so that I can
find my way back when I get into a mess).
The icon is nice, but I would recommend that all Devuan branding distinguish
itself from Debian by making the spiral go round widdershins: that is,
counter-clockwise. Then it would be perfect.

I'm sorry to hear you have systemd installed and you're not happy with
it, if I knew what version you are using I could make a suggestion, I
run all LTS versions or Debian and Ubuntu and now Devuan too. For hard
drive management I use Wheezy and Jessie, for multimedia I use the
latest. Currently I'm looking at keeping some older systems around by
rolling my own kernels. There's always options. And slicing off
another partition for a new install is another option.
As for Ubuntu, they have messed up big-time and now they are on my list
of things I don't want to do anymore and now Microsoft won't be lonely
any more. :)

I hear you, it was just something I slapped together.
You do know that Devuan IS Debian don't you? The only changes made
effect systemd and the packages needed so you can install the desktop of
choice, like udev and libpam, really just a hand full of packages are
changed. I'm running Devuan from Debian's Sid to Jessie, in other words
Devuan Jessie, ASCII, Beowulf and Ceres and Trinity is a clean install
on them all with no real problem, All around Devuan Jessie is the best!
Bill just take away one thing from this post: If it's not fun don't do it.
Cheers!
