I apologize for not being clear enough.I sorta thought so after, so I added notes here:https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,2543.0.html#info_16782
Re: Available now: 66 Reply #4 – 23 May 2021, 17:49:41 So I just go withCode: [Select]# pacman -S 66 elogind-66then? Because when I try that, I get the message that a bunch of dependencies will be broken and pacman refuses to continue. Just checking, all of those *-s6 packages need to be removed?

Just checking, all of those *-s6 packages need to be removed?Yup all must be replaced by SERVICE-66Though initially switching from 66 to another init was working, testing again, seems going back causes boot to lock up during boot, like it may not be finding init or so. So keep this in mind for now, something I have to relook at why and find solution.Edit: OK it seems to work ok. I think my issue happens as I restart VM too fast, probably before drive syncs. To be safer, you can run 'sync' after all the changes and wait just a moment. Last Edit: 23 May 2021, 17:59:26 by ndowens
Re: Available now: 66 Reply #6 – 23 May 2021, 18:54:33 Quote from: strajder – on 23 May 2021, 18:50:24No messages about crash, but I don't get a console to login, the last message says "local-rc: info: starts..." and that's it. I could switch to tty12 and login (I have autostart Xorg), but then my keyboard stopped responding and had to hard reset.Odd, I don't have any suggestions on this, sounds something was corrupted or some steps may have been missed. Did you do all these:66-tree -n boot66-enable -t boot boot@system66-env -t boot -e $EDITOR boot@system ( change settings here and enable things needed with !yes, not yes) I've tested lvm and btrfs , not dmraid as I don't use raid.66-enable -t boot -F boot@system66-tree -ncE default66-enable RUNLEVEL_SERVICES (e.g sshd etc)
Re: Available now: 66 Reply #7 – 23 May 2021, 19:12:18 Just "solved" the problem by 66-tree -RD default; 66-tree -ncE default and enabling the services again. Things are going smooth so far. 1 Likes
