/mnt/sda8 is the partition where Devuan was installed.

I will now start testing Devuan.

Hello Edward,

I also tried the installation from that Devuan merged repository using the same debootstrap command line options. The ones you used actually also pull libsystemd0, systemd and systemd-sysv. Perhaps you expect less restrictions on systemd components in Devuan.

As for me, I think I have to wait a little bit longer until the Devuan merged repository can provide more "cleaner" packages. I initially tried to use the following debootstrap options.

debootstrap --arch=amd64 --include linux-image-amd64,grub-pc,locales,console-setup,ssh --exclude=libsystemd0,systemd,systemd-sysv,init-system-helpers jessie /tmp/sda1 http://packages.devuan.org/merged

And I got below messages:

W: Failure while configuring base packages. This will be re-attempted up to five times. W: See /tmp/sda1/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details (possibly the package openssh-server is at fault)

The failure on openssh-server is due to the exclusion of init-system-helpers because I don't get those messages when I removed init-system-helpers from the exclusion list.

When I didn't include ssh I got below messages, which is also due to the exclusion of init-system-helpers.

W: Failure while configuring base packages. This will be re-attempted up to five times. W: See /tmp/sda1/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details (possibly the package cron is at fault)

When I had a look on the sources on that Devuan merged repository, I didn't see init-system-helpers on the debian/control files of both openssh-server and cron. Perhaps their dependencies are the ones which require init-system-helpers.

Cheers,

Anto
