Current state of development

[ghost]

Hi,

Have been messing with runit for a while and was thinking of bringing it too ArchBang as an alternative init system. Wondering what current state of development ignite is in and how much works. Basically need base + X and openbox window manager. Do you use systemds own udev or something else?

Everything works for me. I use ignite on all (half a dozen) of my own
Arch installs. I use systemd-udevd, yes.

On Void Linux we run similar scripts using eudev, that works as well.

I am going to give ignite a try under arch, would like to use eudev if
possible. Do I need to make any changes to get it too work. Am I right in
saying that Void uses your scripts?

This is not a criticism, but I would adding rc.conf to install be possible?
Package installs and boots fine but you get dropped to a reduced shell as
rc.conf is missing. Do know that you have stated rc.conf should be created
consider having at least ttys running post install.

Everything else works fine even X, did try to install eudev but of course
you cannot remove systemd.

If I get time I will modify pkgbuild to install rc.conf.sample too /etc

mrgreen3, what do you mean when you say you cannot remove systemd? Just being curious, been running openrc and eudev for quite some time now, had no trouble removing systemd.

Am using runit not openrc. Sure eudev would work but Arch compiles a lot of
packages with systemd support. Currently looking at runit-init in aur
(keyboard does not work at the moment under it)

Did not add rc.conf because the file was owned by the old initscripts back then, probably could be done now.

I just keep systemd installed and don't run it.

I cleaned out most of systemd and just left systemd-udev. You can run busybox (mdev) but I could never get keyboard working under X. I think adding rc.conf with ttys just makes sense to me. I like to be able to boot into runit.

Not had any other problems, need to work on eth0 (renaming might be udev rule thing)

Would be nice to have :: Starting rather than output of init script.

To reduce confusing why not call it ignite.conf ;-)

I disabled the rename rule here.

I'm currently bootstrapping a project for supervision scripts. I might be interested in incorporating some of your work. What license is the project under?

Check out readme states license

Ok, found it. Thanks. Sorry about the question but browsing things on a mobile phone isn't always as easy/useful as a full browser and desktop.

For anyone else that reads this thread, the license is public domain.

Because of the license I will go ahead and incorporate any useful bits into the project. Attribution will still be given where applicable. Thank you for pointing that out.

No problem good luck :-)
