There should be a way to make DEFAULT do what I want.

Answered correctly before Greg's reply: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2011-11/msg00904.html

Thank you very much for playing the game, but no Felix, that is NOT correct. It merely make system V init available. It dos NOT make it default. I know, I tried it just today.
Per the posts I received, I installed that, removed systemd and removing systemd removed numerous packages as systemd was marked as a requirement for them.

I didn't write anything about removing anything, only installing. What I wrote worked here on about a dozen systems, but not by removing _any_ of *systemd*. AFAICT,
sysvinit-init does nothing _except_ make sysvinit the default. From the rpm: "Summary: Provides /sbin/init for sysvinit; Description: Just some symlinks."

Felix, I installed the package indicated by someone else, NOT you, and rebooted. systemd controlled the boot. Then I removed systemd as was suggested by someone else. This
gutted my system. At no time did I say that you had suggested this actions. I did say that your information was... inaccurate.
