Geez Adam, what next, fire and fury?

For the time being, we have
http://troubleshooters.com/linux/devuan_docs/runit_jessie.xhtml

My intent is that people with more distro knowledge help me specialize
the document for a Devuan runit *run from PID1* that everyone will like,
and then somebody with apt-foo skills help me turn this document into a
Devuan package. I have a hunch that the finished product will be better
than anything offered by Debian because, ummm, Debian.

Meanwhile, it's still reasonably easy to install runit from the
upstream.
