Has anyone here used knoppix (or any other dedicated Live CD) recently?
In the early 2000's, distros didn't have live environments bundled. All debian used to have was a TUI installer and that's it. Ubuntu 4.10+ introduced a live sessions.
From 2004-now driver support and hardware detection has gotten much better. There are live session CD's that include "nonfree" drivers that further improve hardware support. You can pop in most popular distros and easily connect to WiFi and mount drives, often just as easily as knoppix did.
This complaint about systemd isn't a user-related, but the perspective of the live cd creator. Maybe it's true systemd doesn't help that case, but would systemd get in the way of a live cd user though? They're likely not going to be adding/removing/starting/stopping services, setting up users/groups, or anything else that'd be done in a permanent environment.
