After the mid term evaluation, this project shifts its emphasis from |

Prefix support to improving OpenRC (borrowing ideas from brother |

systems) |

|

During the last week, the following are finished: |

|
9 |
1. deploy a Debian Unstable(aka. Sid) VM for OpenRC dev |
10 |
2. a deep look into Debian's existing init framework |
11 |
init, LSB headers, insserv |

3. a check of dependency handling and script sourcing in OpenRC |
13 |
|
14 |
Next week, the following tasks are scheduled: |
15 |
|
16 |
1. use OpenRC to boot a Debian system |
17 |
2. find a way for OpenRC to use debian LSB init-scripts |
18 |
OR, find a way to convert LSB init-scripts to OpenRC scripts |
19 |
3. Patch OpenRC build system to respect EPREFIX (yes, take this by myself) |
20 |
|
21 |
the following tasks are natural consequences and not scheduled: |
22 |
|
