He uninstalled systemd, now his computer is not doing systemd things anymore by his retelling. Seems like it worked fine. Yet he asks for a solution of a problem. Maybe he needs to state the problem.

This is like the Linux equivalent of deleting system32

[-] SirQuackTheDuck@lemmy.world 53 points 6 months ago

Nah, more like deleting explorer.exe.

There's isn't really a Windows equivalent for this, as Windows doesn't give you control on this level.

It'd be as if you could delete services.msc but also the runner behind it.

I did delete explorer.exe on an earlier iteration of Windows (possibly 98SE). I've just restored it with Windows Commander (now TCMD).

I don’t think you’ll get a cli if you delete system32.

I think we sound test that.

For skyense.

But system32 contains the NT kernel as well, so that's worse. Uninstalling your init system on a Linux distro still leaves you with single user mode. You could probably reinstall an init system from there.

Is it system32 or SySWow64 these days?

[-] PoolloverNathan@programming.dev 7 points 6 months ago

System32 holds the 64-bit stuff and SysWOW64 holds the 32-bit stuff. This makes complete and total sense.

On Debian you can actually change init systems. Don't know how hard it is and you are probably meant to install a new one after removing systemd, but it is possible at least.

I mean, it can work out if he installs an alternative init & rc and a wifi-manager first. And then recreates initrd. Maybe needs to migrate some dns stuff too.
