# pacman -Syu
:: Replace libsystemd with core/systemd? [Y/n]
# grep DAEMONS /etc/rc.conf
DAEMONS=(69switch_xorg.conf hwclock syslog-ng !network !netfs crond
acpid dbus networkmanager rtirq)

I don't understand "Eliminate the daemons one by one from rc.conf. Start
with dbus, which systemd handles very well without any action from you
at all". How can I upgrade, but keep a running system?
"69switch_xorg.conf" e.g. is a script that switch between 2 xorg.conf
regarding to the kernel I boot. If I remove all "daemons" from rc.conf,
have I then to set up systemd?

Can I simply say "no" regarding to

:: Replace libsystemd with core/systemd? [Y/n] n
:: Replace systemd-tools with core/systemd? [Y/n] n

but say yes regarding to

I can't see any information at http://www.archlinux.org/ or
https://www.archlinux.de/.

I'm confused.
