Installing without systemd
Jessie installs systemd by default on new installs. Should one desire to install without systemd, i.e use sysvinit-core instead (old sysV5 init), it is possible to use preseed to replace systemd with sysvinit at the end of the install (This probably won't work if selecting one of the desktop environments that require systemd specific features however). If using a preseed file already, just make sure to set the preseed value
Code:
preseed/late_command="in-target apt-get install -y sysvinit-core"
There may still be a few bits of systemd installed, but at least init itself is not systemd and cleaning up any remaining pieces should not be too hard.
- For answer your second questioning, to create a new Linux distribution and maintain it, you have to be a whole team...
- Finally, if you create a malware installation script using a universal Linux package install command from SystemD, all distributions using SystemD can be infected ... Don't you think ? The use of package installation commands specific to each distribution is a guarantee against this type of problem.
Merry Christmas to everyone.
