runit - use with traditional init

+It's possible to use runit's service supervision without replacing +the init scheme of the system. +Simply run the stage 2 of runit as a service with your +current init. +

+Normally this is done by either adding /etc/runit/2 as command to +/etc/rc.local, or by adding an entry for /etc/runit/2 to +/etc/inittab. +

+If your system uses a sysvinit alike init scheme with a /etc/inittab +file, do: +

+  # cat >>/etc/inittab <<EOT
+  SV:123456:respawn:/etc/runit/2
+  EOT
+

+and tell init to reread its configuration, e.g.: +

+  # init q
+

+If your system uses a BSD alike init scheme with a /etc/rc.local +script, do: +

+  # cat >>/etc/rc.local <<EOT
+  /etc/runit/2 &
+  EOT
+

+and reboot your system. +
