Yes (and no). I am writing this from a Jessie box running sysvinit + OpenRC. AIUI you won't actually have to remove any packages to use sysvinit, just install sysvinit-core and systemd-shim. I have had to pin the systemd package -1 to prevent it being reinstalled on upgrades or on dist-upgrades, but I expect that when Jessie is Stable that you won't need to do that. If you want to run or to test a pid1 other than sysvinit or systemd, then you might have trouble. Maybe some minit-on-Jessie users on the list could provide input? > > As far as I read, this should be possible.

I don't guess we'll really know for sure until the day comes- but I'm confident that it won't be a problem for those who want it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
