Description:

TinyInit is a small modern system init package for UNIX-like systems.

It is specifically targeted at embedded environments, and will work happily on the desktop.

Its main features are:

1. Small; size /sbin/init:
text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
6777     864    3624   11265    2c01 /sbin/init

2. Fast; services are started and stopped in parallel.

3. Dynamic; service dependencies are reported to init program during boot.

4. Additional services can be manually started/stopped after boot.

5. Simple; unified configuration/rc-mechanism, not two-level inittab + rc-mechanism.

6. Can use external rc-mechanism if needed, e.g. Gentoo OpenRC.

7. Specifically targeted at embedded environments, in particular:
works happily with read-only file systems;
performs no explicit dynamic memory allocation.

8. Single user mode supported, as instructed by kernel.

9. Multi-platform; tested on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD.

10. Complete with utility programs for:
service management;
daemon management;
single-user mode login;
multi-shot getty;
system halt program.
