Code: [Select]
 * bootmisc: unknown function `/run'
[ruben@flatbush ~]$ sudo vim /etc/init.d/bootmisc 
[ruben@flatbush ~]$ sudo /etc/init.d/bootmisc restart
[sudo] password for ruben:

Code: [Select]
grep -ir tmpfs /usr/lib/openrc/*
/usr/lib/openrc/sh/init.sh:		mount -t tmpfs -o mode=0755,nodev,size=10% tmpfs /run

Seems hardcoded and not controlled by a config file.

May I ask why you want to change it?

/run is supposed to be tmpfs because /run needs to be deleted on shutdown/reboot. This is by design and follows the FHS(Filesystem Hierarchy Standard).

What I want it to do is stop populating directories with the wrong permisions

specificially, I want it to stop making /run/mysql and make /run/mariadb with maria.mariadb ownership

I also want it to stop adding mysql as a user in /etc/passwd and /etc/groups etc.

Nothing to do with /run.

You need to modify the mariadb package to make those changes.

The mariadb package is also adding users to /etc/passwd on ever reboot?

Re: setting up /run

Yes, the mariadb package controls that. It adds a file /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/mariadb.conf, this file creates the user and group "mysql" on every boot.
