I have had a good look around your forum now and see a lot of posts about start a service as was the case with me too. Would it be possible add something to post install howto starting a service for new users not every Distro users sv for service control. Just so it is easier to find.
To see available runlevels (default and single, which just runs sulogin):
$ ls -l /etc/runit/runsvdir
To enable and start a service into the "current" runlevel:
# ln -s /etc/runit/sv/<service> /run/runit/service
To disable and remove a service:
# rm -f /run/runit/service/<service>
To view status of all services for "current" runlevel:
# sv status /run/runit/service/*
Thanks
There is the wiki, which may have that info too.
Thanks I got the info posted from the wiki. Just thought it may be part of a sticky or FAQ make it easier for new user to find.
Must say your wiki is awesome inline with the arch wiki.
Thanks again
Additionally, every init system should display help/basic usage (for your specific init) in the terminal when you install a script from the repos.
