		<h1>The s6-linux-init-runleveld service</h1>
		<p>
			s6-linux-init-runleveld starts the daemon corresponding to
			<a href="https://skarnet.org/software/s6-linux-init/s6-linux-init-telinit.html">s6-linux-init-telinit</a>.
			It is very similar to
			<a href="//0x53.net/software/goetia/goetia-base/service/system/goetia-runner.html">goetia-runner</a>
			(which corresponds to <a href="//0x53.net/software/goetia/goetia-base/bin/system-run.html">system-run</a>).
			s6-linux-init-runleveld can be used to start and stop bundles
			(bundles replace a functionality historically called runlevels)
			and have the corresponding
			<a href="https://skarnet.org/software/s6-rc/s6-rc.html">s6-rc</a>
			command executed <em>from the supervision tree</em>.
			This makes the transition resilient to e.g. interface crashes
			or the command itself stopping the interface it was executed from.
