OpenRC actually uses sysvinit; it replaces sysv-rc (the boot script
framework) rather than init.
In terms of how you run the scripts, it's fairly interchangeable; the
most significant difference from sysv-rc is how you write the scripts,
but even that is a matter of writing shell functions rather than
case statements.
