minit - init system

Unread post by machinebacon » Fri Jun 06, 2014 5:18 pm

Also in the repos, with a really helpful manpage :) After installation, the kernel command line needs to be altered to use init=/sbin/minit.
Of course the user needs to check which service should be started, in /etc/minit/default/

Please read the website at http://www.fefe.de/minit/ and keep in mind that LinuxBBQ's snapshot tool does not support minit as init system for remixes.

a little out of my league here, but I had mentioned to pids that I played around a bit with minit. From what I read and learned from pids, I understand why this project, but for me, not sure if I can reap or tap the full benefits. This is really just the default result

Nice job getting it working (try the untried and all that). And yes, once again a beautiful scrot; just enough color to make it interesting.

Cool Drew. Fantastic tree, a very small plant in your case. :)
