I will never, ever, EVER facepalm over somebody doing DIY experimentation. Now, when you speak of initramfs or of busybox, you speak with authority. You've taken a step forward from the dwobes parroting the nonsense mouthed by others in their party. I was even hoping that with Busybox inside an initramfs, you'd have created an "initramfs lite" that's simple to understand, debug and use. In other words, I was hoping you'd prove me wrong :-). It has consistently been people doing what you did that caused me to change my mind. As long as we're on the subject, for those who are new to Devuan (joined up after maybe June 2015), here's some DIY experimentation I did that enabled me to authoritatively swat aside nonsense from PoetterParrots: http://troubleshooters.com/linux/init/manjaro_experiments.htm SteveT Steve Litt Spring 2021 featured book: Troubleshooting Techniques of the Successful Technologist http://www.troubleshooters.com/techniques _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
