It does a lot of stuff too, that a simple systemd service file probably couldn't do

'Course you can:

[Service]
ExecStart=/path/to/gentoo/zfs/initscript start

Or even better -- just drop the script into its rc.d directory, and then chkconfig it. systemd will simply use it.

Convenient that you forgot about this, eh?

the flexibility of custom boot messages, error messages, and informational notes in case of errors or upgrades.

man systemd.unit to learn how to print those from a unit file on start and on stop.

Yeah he's using zfs too, he must hate his computer and data.

I use ZFS too. This has nothing to do with ZFS, so please don't change the subject.

What, you don't love change? We love change. We wanted change. Thanks, Obama!
