Please note the creation of an isolated sysvinit requires one to manually create symbolic links in its rcN.d. It also requires populating its init.d directory with all the necessary scripts/programs, although symbolic links pointing outside our creation, should also be possible to be used. The script takes care of populating dgli/etc/init.d but leaves populating rcN.d for the user.
The Method (you may call it Russian Roulette if you like):
- Download and extract the sources for sysvinit for your version of debian. Make sure the debian directory exists and is not empty. Mine is like this:
Where sysvinit-2.88dsf is the sources' top directory.
Code: Select all
sysvinit-2.88dsf/debian - Browse down to sysvinit-2.88dsf/src and open the paths.h file. Edit it or replace it with the following file which is for Jessie. Make sure you edit the same paths I edited.
Code: Select all

- At the GRUB screen, press 'e' to enter edit mode. Move down to the kernel line and insert the parameter:
Code: Select all
init=/dgli/sbin/init [*][b]If everthing is correct, which usually never is for complex hacks,[/b] you should be able to boot.[/list] I am thinking about making these changes into a final binary package, but in the true spirit of open source and freedom, I also gave and will give all the necessary details regarding this hack. If the forum software allows me, I will also upload the contents of the modified scripts/programs in dgli/etc/init.d. If you are uncomfortable having something as complex as this installed, without the package management system's knowledge, you can build a package using dpkg -b, but you have to supply a control file, obviously, with correct entries. The other hack, regarding providing an empty package for systemd, can be improved, and that is exactly what I want to achieve, by including a dependency requiring our micro-system, let us call it, born-again-sysv. I intend to produce these two packages to help those who want to continue using Debian when it decides systemd to become mandatory. Till now, there is no need of these complex hacks, but we have to be prepared for any eventuality. May the spirit of reciprocal help, promote the cause of free and open source to all.
