You are correct. The sysvinit package (which provided the fallback) was dropped: * Drop transitional sysvinit package. It has served its purpose for the wheezy → jessie transition and keeping it around for longer only leads to confusion as it doesn't setup /etc/inittab which is necessary to boot with SysV. This functionality has moved into sysvinit-core, which should be used instead in such a case. (Closes: #781766) There is nothing blocking its reintroduction, though, if care is taken to make sysvinit functional after installing it. Saludos
