I would prefer that /sbin/init is shipped as a real file by systemd- sysv, instead of a symlink of any kind. (E.g. a copy of /lib/systemd/systemd).

In both cases we are dealing with an absolute symlink "/bin/systemd -> /lib/systemd/systemd" or "/sbin/init -> /lib/systemd/systemd". I see: /init: line 307: readlink: not found Target filesystem doesn't have requested /bin/systemd and then a kernel panic.
