How to switch yocto INIT_MANAGER from systemd to sysvinit #dunfell

Hello Yocto team:

I just started with yocto and would like to know the process for switching the init manager from systemd to sysvinit.

I tried this options in config file
VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_init_manager = "busybox"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_udev = "sysvinit"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_udev-utils = "sysvinit"
DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL_CONSIDERED = "sysvinit"
DEFAULT_DISTRO_FEATURES += " sysvinit"

I see a warning when building my machine:

No recipe for target:
/recipes-core/sysvinit/sysvinit_2.88dsf.bbappend

When I run this build on my target it still shows me systemd init manager...

Not sure if I am missing any options.
Could you please let me know if there are any pointers I can refer to?

Thanks,
Priya
