Hey Dave!

 DV> All distro's should give the option of fallback to OpenRC init for
 DV> those that don't want to run Gnome3

I've never heard of nor have ever used openrc.  I am currently using sysvinit
and LFS bootscripts.  They work great and have yet to give me any hassel.

 DV> systemd is nothing but a pain in the ass

I thought it was worse than that.  sysvinit scripts are a pain in the ass but
with effort they will work whereas I cannot say the same for systemd.  Could be
that I was doing it all wrong but I couldn't find any documentation that would
confirm that.  Instead everything I read seemed to suggest that it should have
all worked fine but that isn't what I was witnessing.

Life is good,
Maurice
