The things I am worried about are:

- Hardware compatibility. If Debian works (I'm thinking it does), how 
likely is Devuan?

- Navigating the installer. Putting btrfs on top of encrypted LVM 
doesn't seem to involve who will be PID 0, right?

- Suspend and hibernating to encrypted swap, and will it ever come back 
to life?


How much should a systemdectomy need to mess with these things? Other 
than systemd trying to be the whole OS, it seems they should be pretty 
orthogonal. Or am I wrong?


Thanks,
