Kanotix Requests - systemd, opinion of the Kanotix team?

To me this system change sounds rather bad, but then I'm not exactly technical.
Seems to be on the verge of creating a fork of Debian.

And a lot of complaints about coding as well as design (Linus Torvalds calls some of the hacks 'insane').

Is this seen as a potential problem for Kanotix?

Right now I suppose the KDE version of Kanotix is a petty good systemd alternative.

Kanotix Spitfire uses systemd since several months. It is created every night.

Thanks. I hope the controversy is overblown. Will check out Spitfire.

Is there a way to use sysinitV in Kanotix?
I'm not a huge fan of systemd, but I like kanotix. I use it as my main OS.

That's already started: the debian fork without systemd is called Devuan.

Dragenfire used sysvinit, Spitfire uses systemd, usually you do not even notice that is is used.

For general user, systemd or sysvinit doesn't make any difference; but for server admins...sysvinit is much more easier to work with.
I'm staying with Dragonfire. Sehr glücklich

What do you configure with sysvinit that you can not do with systemd?

It's the debugging part of a problem a bit difficult, that's all. But, I'm slowly getting the hang of it.

Devuan has come a long way now, easiest way to install it seems to be Refracta as that is a proper live distro.
With LXDE + slim login manager this is a perfect end user distro on my old netbook (eee 1000H)
