Package: openrc
Version: 0.40.3-1
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss
Dear Maintainer,
(1)
https://beta.devuan.org/os/documentation/install-guides/beowulf/img/025initchoice.png
says that a user can choose sysvinit versus openrc.
When "openrc" is chosen, PID 1 is /sbin/init and it is from the sysvinit-core package,
not the openrc-init. The choice made by the Devuan Installer Beta 2 is the one
between sysv-rc and openrc packages. If it is intended, texts in
https://beta.devuan.org/os/documentation/install-guides/beowulf/img/025initchoice.png
have to be revised.
(2) If the above (1) is considered a bug (I think so), to which package a bug report is
filed by reportbug? It seems undocumented.
(3) One can choose /sbin/openrc-init as PID 1 by adding init=/sbin/openrc-init to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line in /etc/default/grub, then running update-grub.
After rebooting, there is no login prompt on any virtual ttys!!!
"man openrc-init" says
openrc-init doesn't manage getty's directly, so you will need to manage them another way. For example, you can use the
agetty service script as described in agetty-guide.md in this distribution.
Hmm... but there is no "agetty" package in Devuan.
I hope there exists some more friendly document on how to enable login prompts
by openrc-init in the Devuan Beowulf...
Note: Devuan Beowulf is running on qemu-kvm, but it may not matter...
Best regards, Ryutaroh Matsumoto
