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

<p>This example is for runit, but it will work with all init systems packaged in the
distribution repositories. See <a href="cpt_002dalternatives.html"><code>cpt-alternatives</code></a>
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">$ cpt a runit /usr/bin/init
$ cpt a runit /usr/bin/poweroff
$ cpt a runit /usr/bin/reboot
</pre></div>



<span id="Rebooting-after-changing-Init"></span><h4 class="subsection">3.3.1 Rebooting after changing Init</h4>

<p>After switching init systems, your running init system may not accept the
new poweroff commands. You will need to reboot/poweroff using the running init&rsquo;s
utilities for the new utilities to work. These commands are for the init system
currently running on your system and not the one you are switching to.
