I have the feeling there's little misunderstanding: I thought you just didn't like the option for creating systemd autologin but it looks like you mean you do not like promoting systemd itself (on the other hand you made section in DD documentation about it. ). As you see I'm confused.Quote:
Edit: To be more clear, changing /etc/inittab for autologin (as we have now) is not standard Debian also.
There is a good reason for it - we can't autologin other way without using login display manager and especially with xdm without changing inittab.
What good reason or advantage do we offer for live-boot by suggesting alternative systemd boot since the official debian method is working fine and is well documented in Debian sites and forums?
I agree that it's difficult to find answers for problems about systemd as it's not much used yet.
So, I wouldn't mind if it takes long time being the standard in Debian but I guess it will be someday and I personally like to be a bit prepared already.
