Artix Linux Forum

Yes I followed the wiki, either for the version of installing runit in an Openrc installation. Wants for the net install version only with runit. And always following the wiki, the errors were similar without internet access cable or wifi and never got to the display manager, lxdm, slim, sddm, xdm. As I said I always followed the steps of the wiki and did not solve. I wanted to test an Artix with runit, but I have to make do with Void.

How about S6, have you ever tried it?
In theory S6 is better than runit, in practice I can't notice any difference in performance.
You can install obarun then keep obarun repositories on top for S6, use artix (instead of arch) below for everything else.  Void is a good system but the variety of pkgs you find here you may never see in void.  If you think void boots up fast wait until you see obarun.

Someone is probably going to scream at me for promoting an other distribution here, but it is a safe way to use S6 in artix, till someone makes the S6-bundle a plug and play item here.  Just make sure you indicate that you have done so, when you are asking for help, so people know who to blame for the problem

NOTICE TO ALL RUNIT USERS:

We are now migrating our naming scheme from package_name-runscripts to package_name-runit.

If you are using [gremlins], you should notice that pacman will ask if you want to replace the associated runscript package with runit package, answer yes.

Also, we are moving our available runit-scripts directory from /etc/sv to /etc/runit/sv, this is done to ensure there are no collisions if we add support for s6 systems.

This migration will be completed and the new package should land in [system], [world], and [galaxy] respectively at the end of March or the beginning of April.

In the meantime, all new packages with new naming scheme and new directory are on hold in [gremlins] and [galaxy-gremlins], respectively.

COMPLETED:
- [system], now on [gremlins]

IN PROGRESS:
- [world], some on [gremlins]

NOT STARTED YET:
- [galaxy]

I installed artix openrc in a virtualbox, I followed the wiki to install runit. I did all the steps, but when I go to uninstall openrc, this message appears.

 I apologize, but the system is in Portuguese so the answer of the dependencies is in Portuguese. How can I solve it without breaking the system?

Thanks for the help, but I continue without accessing the login screen and without internet. Here photos of how it is;

As far as internet goes, you need to install the runit scripts for networking. In my particular case I needed NetworkManager and dhcpcd. On a notebook you would probably need something like wpa_supplicant for wifi. Without these service scripts running internet cannot be achieved.

WARNING: If you still have openrc installed, make sure to make the symlinks for halt, shutdown, poweroff and reboot in /usr/local/bin instead for easier deletion.

Yes @konimex, I followed every step of the wiki, even in the wakeup call to leave the network manager functional. Even before rebooting, I took a look at the Void linux wiki. But still, the same problems remain, I'll wait a few weeks and then try again. Thanks again for your help.
