So your Palm Pre is a mini-linux-computer and not a smart phone in Palm's view? :D While i agree that much of the init system we know from SysV init is not well suited for mobile device I think upstarts offers other functionality you are going to re-implement anyway. Like dependencies, events and restart of jobs. Don't want to destroy your minit dreams here. :P > Having a choice between those approaches is good, so I'd welcome seeing > upstart being a deployable option in OE.
