Re: Changing init system and quirks
Reply #4 –
In general, find all your current init packages and replace them with their other init equivalent (as root):
# pacman -Syy; for p in $(pacman -Qq | grep \\\-openrc); do pacman -Rdd $p; pacman -S $(echo $p | sed s/openrc/runit/); done
This can even be performed within a running system, although a live ISO and a chroot would be better. You won't be able to normally reboot or poweroff right after you switch init, obviously; sync and push the button.
