How would that work with systemd where /run is bind mounted on /var/run
(so it requires a /var/run directory) ?
That's not a problem.
systemd checks if /var/run is a symlink, and if so leaves it alone
(this is the preferred way of doing it).
Only if /var/run is a directory, it will by bind-mounted, giving more
or less the same result as the symlink.
Deleting /var/run and replacing it with a symlink is a bit of a
hassle, so even if you are using systemd it might be worth-while to
reboot once with initscripts so this will be done for you.

Hi,
I'm running systemd.
What exactly is bind-mounted? Current mount information shows:
/run on /var/run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,mode=755)
I presume this is a bind-mount? So what you're saying is that I should
boot with SysV once to convert it into a symlink?
Thanks,
Christian.
