I mentioned in my post that there are reasons some may want to use |
19 |
systemd. Here it is: |

"Now for someone who has to reboot a lot, sounds windowish doesn't it, |
22 |
then by all means convert to systemd or whatever suites your fancy. As |
23 |
always, what works for one doesn't suite the needs of another. That's |
24 |
why we use Gentoo. We get to use what suites us. " |

It sounds like systemd would benefit you since you have to reboot a lot. Thing is, lots of people don't reboot that often. Given you have a laptop, you likely reboot quite often and even a faster boot up would be nice so maybe you should give it a try. After all, when you are running off of a battery, every bit counts. |

I have seen quite a few posts where people have switched to it. It seems it has a bit of a curve to getting it working but once working, it works. Me, if I was going to switch, I'd use a second install or copy my current install to another partition, just in case I can't get around that curve. ;-) |

My point was that I don't see any reason to switch myself. While sort of agreeing with pk, I do see what some would want to switch and I have no problem with someone posting a success story. I have done so myself when I went to LVM. I'm sure there are others but that is one I remember pretty well. |
