There is always a potential for problems. However, if there are no actual problems, then there's no effective difference between having systemd-sysv installed at some point in the installation and then replacing it with sysvinit-core. If you find actual problems, please file the bugs. If you're really that concerned about this issue, it's also not that difficult to roll your own version of d-i which contains the fix for #668001, and use the --include/exclude options to debootstrap to fix it. -- Don Armstrong http://www.donarmstrong.com The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair. -- Douglas Adams _Mostly Harmless_ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
