I don't understand what you are saying here. If eselect-init installs the wrapper as /sbin/einit, we don't have to touch /sbin/init at all, then, the only thing someone would have to do is to add an entry to their boot loader with init=3D/sbin/einit on the kcl to use it. > > I like the suggestion that came up here on the list a while back, have > > the eselect init module install its own symlink at, say, /sbin/einit. > > You would still have to have the user edit their boot loader > > configuration file one time if they want to use this, but this makes it > > completely opt-in. >=20 > Plus hacking kernel sources to disable /sbin/init fallback. No, there is no reason we would have to hack anything in the kernel sources.
