Due to real(boring?) work I've had not much time to put in on
this.

I did get devuan-jessie-amd64-alpha4-netboot.iso installed in a VirtualBox VM.
This went without problems.


Jude had already done some basic package-building that is present on git.


However me who never ever ran debian and are somewhat unfamiliar with
init here ran into problem getting vdev to run at start up?

I tried putting it into /etc/rcS.d that is a link here to a startup script
in /etc/init.d

But when I get to slim-login manager I get no keyboard.

Seems to try to start vdev when choosing systemd boot alternative but no
evidence of start with eudev that I could see?

If I boot to prompt vdev --once seems to run OK allthough not on /dev
which could be due to devtmpfs mounted?

Any input? anyone more familiar with devuan init.


A few releases ago, intoducing a new init script in /etc/init.d, and the corresponding links in rc?.d has become a little more complicated, because the comments at the head of the script now consitute a meta-language describing the interdependencies of these scripts. AFAIR, after copying the script in /etc/init.d, the admin should invoke update-rc.d in some way to do the job. I didn't experiment with this and rather now put my own bricolage in rc.local, which is of course not a valid suggestion for vdev.

vdev should be invoked with /dev as argument (plus possible options) if you want it to create device files on /dev.

    Hope this helps.
