As preparation for the coming Beta2 and RC I did a dry run on a virtual
machine from Debian Wheezy to Devuan Jessie (beta) with the instructions
from dev1fanboy. It worked flawlessy with one minor point: apt-get purge
systemd-shim libsystemd0 gave an error message from dpkg for systemd.
But after rebooting systemd was removed without any further errors.
