Three things: you give the hostname with the commandline --hostname
yourhostname because /etc/hostname is protected by the docker daemon.
For the console you have to add -t to the commandline too. And have
access to some fs you have to use --CAP_ADD with the correct privilege
or for quick and dirty --privileged.
So

docker run -t --hostname your hostname --privileged --name=runit
runit-testsuite

Better yet you remove everything in /etc/rcS.d/* (in the Dockerfile) and
add just the scripts you want to run in phase 1 from runit most likely
you won't need the --privileged part than.

Grtz.
