As a matter of fact, Suckless Init (and Felker Init) cannot even manage daemons, so it must pass that task on to a daemon manager like daemontools-encore. Of all the workable init systems for Linux, Suckless Init is probably the simplest (except for Felker Init, which is discussed at the end of this document). If you understand any daemontools like program, and you understand a 16 line init program that basically forks off a shellscript and then kills zombies, you understand this init system. Here's the overview of the init system you'll build in this document: It's going to be a long, wild ride, and when it's done, in most init discussions, and more than a few systems-programming discussions, you'll be the smartest guy in the room. To get any more down and dirty you would have had to code it yourself in C. You'll have a pretty good idea how to configure or troubleshoot any init process. When you've reproduced the work in this document, you'll know the exact basics of an init process. When their trial and error and lookup and ask and speculation, guesswork and prayer don't work, and the answer isn't on or, the cockpit control aficionados come to you to troubleshoot the problem. And you like the DIY side benefit: You're one of the vanishing breed who can systematically troubleshoot. That's OK, you're DIY and you've heard it all before. Their exclusive focus is learning the latest cockpit controls - leave what's under the hood for the developers. Try as you might, you'll never get them to understand why you care about what's under the hood. If others find out you installed Suckless Init on Plop Linux, many will ask you why you're wasting your time. This material isn't easy, and it isn't something you do in an afternoon. If you weren't DIY, you wouldn't be reading this. Yes, It Works With The Rich Felker Init.Transferring Processes From Sysvinit to Daemontools-Encore.
