Trying to figure it out now.

Ok then, separate thread ;-)
I just watched this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyMLi8QF6sw
while I continued testing systemd in my VM.
The VM runs ~amd64, so far only a few services started (I still get my
head around how to enable/disable specific services/targets), and it
boots really fast
Yes, I know, I should start a new thread.
So far I got the impression that it would take quite some time and work
to get my machines and their services configured correctly.
For now I will keep it inside that ~amd64-VM and continue to test and learn.
