I looked at the wiki and fear I need a pre-wiki, that is the wiki seems |
22 |
to assume you know a fair amount about systemd, which I don't. |
23 |
|
24 |
For example, it seems that instead of /etc/init.d and /etc/runlevels we |
25 |
have services. After running |
26 |
emerge --changed-use --deep @world |
27 |
must I check that every entry previously in /etc/init.d now has an entry |
28 |
in /usr/lib/systemd/system? What do I do if there is no corresponding |
29 |
entry? |
30 |
|
31 |
Similarly, the wiki talks about some configuration files |
32 |
(e.g. /etc/hostname replacing /etc/conf.d/hostname). But what about all |
33 |
the other files in /etc/conf.d? Do I just copy them to /etc? |
34 |
|
35 |
In summary I would hope that we get an introductory document (a simple |
36 |
conversion guide) as a pre-read before the wiki. |
37 |
|
38 |
The problem is not the wiki, but my lack of the prerequisite knowledge. |
