It starts much earlier in a systemd setup; in sysvinit it's in rc2.d, whereas with systemd it just waits for apparmor.service, system-random-seed.service and systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service, so the risk of it being blocked is much smaller. -- Tollef Fog Heen UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are
