Correct, that's what I have been thinking about. |

OpenRC has never installed an inittab because it is init-system |
| 14 |
agnostic. It has one under /usr/share/openrc/support/sysvinit, but also |
| 15 |
there is a README there that explains why it isn't installed. |

If you use pure openrc (without sysvinit) you can rm /etc/inittab and be |
| 18 |
fine. |
