Systemd - it's the most popular init system when it comes to Linux, and everyone loves it. Honest. But whether or not you love Systemd, you're going to love this video because it will teach you all the core basics of Systemd. This coverage will include starting, stopping, restarting units, location priority in regard to unit file locations, editing service units and more! (And yes, you WILL learn Systemd with this video, or your money back!!!) Note: Be sure to check the time code section to see what's covered. One or more follow-up videos will be made at some point in the future to cover anything I ran out of time for. Enjoy! Learn Linux TV - Your Home For Linux-Related Fun and Learning!
