Hi all,

Not trying to throw jet fuel on a fire, but when I switch to
runlevel 3, I have no active network anymore.

It "looks" like systemd configure itself to whatever is running at
upgrade time and if you don't have a gui environment, you're kind of
screwed. there doesn't seem to be a way to
re-configure to if-up.

I would *really* like a choice between systemd and traditional init.
I much prefer system-v.



The option is under "F3" at boot time. Once booted delete systemd
package.

Ummm... Hi All... I'm back. It's actually under F5 and the advice to
uninstall the systemd package is not too swift... It removes cron,
wpa_supplicant and oh yeah, Xorg. Yes, the
system boots, but it's no fun to get running again. So... Lets try
this again, how do I change the default from systemd to system V init,
given that I can't remove systemd without
gutting my system?

Bruce,

Edit the grub entry to have init=/sbin/sysvinit on it.

(this is from memory, so do google search to make sure I have it exactly right.)
