[solved]systemd migration.... cant remove dbus or networkmanage...

Hi, brief and I imagine quick question as I think everyone is going though or has recently made the switch to systemd. I have done a lot of reading about systemd and have got all the correct files in place and no longer have rc.local and my rc.conf is bare..... just a couple of items left in it which I cant remove! namely DAEMONS=(dbus networkmanager)

#
# /etc/rc.conf - Main Configuration for Arch Linux
DAEMONS=(dbus networkmanager)

I have done;
systemctl enable NetworkManager.service
systemctl enable NetworkManager-wait-online.service

and i believe dbus does not need "enabling" however, neither come up on system boot unless specified in dbus

EDIT:
hmmm just noticed, i can not mount USB's anymore with pcmanfm... get the error "Not authorized to perform operation"

Are you sure you're actually booting with systemd?

ps -p 1

Really? I found it fine. Either way, it's a wiki - make any changes you think necessary.

I too found the systemd page incredibly easy to follow.  Though I converted a couple months ago, so the last time I checked I noticed that it has grown quite a bit since I referenced it.  Maybe this is why you find it less than clear?
