All,

I am in the process of upgrading core items in my image (core-image-minimal 
with a few additional packages), and one item I am taking a look at is changing 
my init from SysVinit.  I know the other easily supported option for init is 
systemd, but if I change to systemd I want to do it because it works best for 
my setup and not just because I think its my only other option.  I'd like to 
try some other init options out, but I don't see how to setup the configuration 
to use an init other than SysVinit or systemd and I am looking for some help.

What configuration variables do I need to set in order to use a different init 
system?  What items do I need to add that are automatically added when using 
SysVInit or systemd that would not be added when using an unsupported init 
system?

Thanks,
Bryan
