The system-init program

system-init is a wrapper around s6-linux-init.

Interface

     system-init

• system-init takes no arguments.
• It executes s6-linux-init with proper arguments to:
  • Use the umask 0022.
  • Use the config at /etc/s6-linux-init/goetia
  • Use the PATH environment variable set to /command:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/libexec:/usr/local/libexec.

Exit codes

• system-init does nothing more than starting s6-linux-init with arguments and behaves exactly like it.
• See also: execline exit code handling.

Options

• There are no options to system-init.

Notes

system-init is primarily intended to be used as an init for an acutal boot process, not for containers.
