rc-car (fork of minirc)

The script "rc" is a minimalistic init script made for use with busybox init.

Installing

Dependencies:

busybox
eudev or systemd (for udev)

1. When you are confident, run "./setup.sh --force"
2. Remove "init=..." from your kernel parameters (if it is there) so that the default value "init=/sbin/init" is used.
3. Configure /etc/rccar.conf to your needs.
4. Reboot.

Dealing with services

The variable DAEMONS is used for listing the runnable services.

The variable ENABLED is used to define services that are started on boot.

• First, write a .tire file for your service that you want to enable in /etc/rc-car/service/<daemon name>.tire files if there isn't one already.
• Then, write its name in the ENABLED variable in /etc/rccar.conf which is sourced by rc-car on boot and while running.
• Now you can start/stop/restart/poll the service.

Shutdown & Reboot

You can run rc shutdown or rc reboot to accomplish this.

Further Help

Run "rc --help" for information.

Never run "rc init" except during the boot process, when called by the init.
