Unless you're planning to write your own init system - do not bother. In the case you really need it - it's all in 'cgroup-v1' in the standard kernel documentation, i.e. /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-4.9/Documentation/cgroup-v1 > How would I go about disabling n-m with systemctl? "apt-get purge network-manager" allows me not to bother myself with such knowledge. Why disable it if you can remove it? It's Debian, not RHEL. Reco
