I'm not sure what you mean by the ins and outs of Linux. I assume you mean the userspace plumbing rather than the kernel?
In any case, I would only go the systemd route if it is what you want to learn. Otherwise just use runit -- much simpler and probably a bit easier to bootstrap. That leaves you time and energy to spend on other areas.
- whytaka 6y agoI would like have some proficient understanding over the architecture of Linux. Both in terms of how the kernel works, and how everything is configured up to userspace. I'm inclined to go the systemd route because I use it myself regularly, but I also understand that systemd is a bit of a monolithic piece within Linux. I suspected that it might hide a lot of things that used to be more discrete and manual (but more unix-y).
