I looked at the wiki and fear I need a pre-wiki, that is the wiki seems to assume you know a fair amount about systemd, which I don't. For example, it seems that instead of /etc/init.d and /etc/runlevels we have services. After running emerge --changed-use --deep @world must I check that every entry previously in /etc/init.d now has an entry in /usr/lib/systemd/system? What do I do if there is no corresponding entry? Similarly, the wiki talks about some configuration files (e.g. /etc/hostname replacing /etc/conf.d/hostname). But what about all the other files in /etc/conf.d? Do I just copy them to /etc? In summary I would hope that we get an introductory document (a simple conversion guide) as a pre-read before the wiki. The problem is not the wiki, but my lack of the prerequisite knowledge.
