[sles-beta] SLES12 Beta Question concerning systemd /etc/init.d/boot.local

[urs.frey at post.ch]

Thank you Frederic

Concerning VMware, we will see. Hope VMware as partner of SUSE will adapt for SLES12 and systemd ;-) (ISV)

Best regards

You can still create /etc/init.d/boot.local and it will be used as
before, when present, no need to do anything else
(/usr/lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service is taking care of it)

Otherwise, it would be better for VMWare to install a systemd service
(but that's up to them ;)
