devuan makes a very good chance of replacing archlinux as my
preferred distro.
It was the network startup that was causing the delay -sorted now.
FWIW, I've seen to
Sorry, that's supposed to be NO
startup speed difference on my systems between
Debian (init) and Debian (systemd).
But I can't guarantee that. When Debian first switched to systemd, I
had problems with it trying to mount my CIFS shares before it had set
up the network connection. And during updates, it still announces that
start/stop is no longer supported for a couple of running services.
How long ago did Debian Testing switch to systemd?
I think I'll put Devuan on one of my desktop partitions and see how it
goes. Init I understood much better than the complexities of systemd!
See you at
the LAC !
:)
Looking at the provisional schedule, I'm wondering when I'll be able
to fit in essential feeding and watering :o
Especially beering! ;)
Closest I get to LAC is having a Linux-using friend who is currently
in Germany attending an Early Music Festival somewhere along the Elbe.
I tease him that he's going to come back 800-1000 years ago.
I'll have to bombard him with brand new music from LAC and the list
when he gets back. Although he liked Jeanette's Bach recordings
earlier.
