<p>By default, Carbs Linux comes preinstalled with &lsquo;<samp>busybox-init</samp>&rsquo;, but this can
easily be replaced without any issues. Currently, available init systems are:
</p>
<ul>
<li> &lsquo;<samp>sinit</samp>&rsquo;
</li><li> &lsquo;<samp>busybox</samp>&rsquo;
</li><li> &lsquo;<samp>runit</samp>&rsquo;
</li><li> &lsquo;<samp>shinit</samp>&rsquo;
</li></ul>

<p>This example is for runit, but it will work with all init systems packaged in the
distribution repositories. See the &lsquo;<samp>cpt-alternatives(1)</samp>&rsquo; manual page for more
details.
</p>
