   1 Porting systemd To New Distributions
   2
   3 HOWTO:
   4         You need to make the follow changes to adapt systemd to your
   5         distribution:
   6
   7         1) Find the right configure parameters for:
   8
   9             --with-rootprefix=
  10             --with-sysvinit-path=
  11             --with-sysvrcnd-path=
  12             --with-rc-local-script-path-start=
  13             --with-rc-local-script-path-stop=
  14             --with-kbd-loadkeys=
  15             --with-kbd-setfont=
  16             --with-tty-gid=
  17
  18         2) Try it out. Play around (as an ordinary user) with
  19         '/usr/lib/systemd/systemd --test --system' for a test run
  20         of systemd without booting. This will read the unit files and
  21         print the initial transaction it would execute during boot-up.
  22         This will also inform you about ordering loops and suchlike
  23
  24 CONTRIBUTING UPSTREAM:
  25
  26         We generally do no longer accept distribution-specific
  27         patches to systemd upstream. If you have to make changes to
  28         systemd's source code to make it work on your distribution,
  29         unless your code is generic enough to be generally useful, we
  30         are unlikely to merge it. Please always consider adopting the
  31         upstream defaults. If that is not possible, please maintain
  32         the relevant patches downstream.
