Hi Steve,

These were fresh UEFI hard drive installs not a VM.
From what I can see systemd is being installed with the base
installation in both jessie and ceres.
No debian in my sources.list only deb and deb-src devuan was in there,
either for jessie or ceres depending on the installation choice.
I noticed Sysvinit was being installed during the second install phase,
but on the boot I have systemd.
Maybe it is the init chooser that is defaulting to systemd.

To confirm the installation of systemd, I checked by doing a search with
Synaptic and sure enough the slimy thing was there with a green box next
to it.

I hope to mess with this later but it has swallowed too much of my time
already today.
I nuked the install and have returned to my hacked Debian version.
