題目: Re: [DNG] Giving Devuan sans-initramfs capabilities
I don't understand the desire to change it at all.

We know where the kern modules are now, we've known for over a decade,
just leave it as it was.

If systemd wasn't, this wouldn't be talked about.
Which is why it shouldn't be discussed.

Don't let them pull you by the nose.
At all.
