+
+ **IMPORTANT!** Carbs-init update to be released on 17th of February
+ will require manual intervention. I am holding this update back so
+ people can see it before they update their system (even though the
+ update will show the same message as this). The rationale for the
+ update is explained below the intervention.
+
+ ,----
+ | # There is an explanation for each init You only need to follow the instructions
+ | # for your own init-system
+ |
+ | ## busybox-init
+ | # If you did not edit your inittab simply move inittab.new to inittab
+ | mv /etc/inittab.new /etc/inittab
+ |
+ | # If you did edit your inittab you can use a simple sed command to remove the
+ | # necessary lines
+ | sed -i '/getty/d;/runsvdir/d' /etc/inittab
+ |
+ |
+ | ## runit
+ | # same as busybox-init, if you did not edit /etc/runit/2 move 2.new to 2
+ | mv /etc/runit/2.new /etc/runit/2
+ |
+ | # else
+ | vim /etc/runit/2
+ | # open your 2 file and remove the for loop containing getty commands. If you are
+ | # using runit, it is recommended to comment out /etc/init/runit.boot
+ |
+ | ## sinit/minit
+ | # If you did not edit your {sinit-,}launch-services.boot you can simply remove
+ | # it.
+ | rm -f /etc/init/launch-services.boot /etc/init/sinit-launch-services.boot
+ |
+ | # This should leave you without any issues, and you can safely reboot.
+ `----
+
+ Carbs-init update is to make sure init systems do not clash, and do
+ not have to use different files. This is a sensible update both for
+ the user user and for the maintainer side.
+
+ To give an example, before this update busybox-init was managing getty
+ through `inittab', runit was managing through `/etc/runit/2', and
+ minit/sinit were launching from `/etc/init/launch-services.boot'. This
+ is a configuration nightmare for everyone, and since I am maintaining
+ and constantly testing those init providers, a huge nightmare for me.
+ This is a Quality of Life update.
