Open Source Linux Init Software - Page 3

RemoteBIOS is a set of tools that helps you to writen LinuxBIOS bios, test it flashing only one time the ROM, with remotebios.bin. And you can remotely execute a ELF binary, or a script, for example memory initialization script,etc through Serial Port.

SLAVE is completely modulars set of scripts and programs, made to parallelize Linux Init's services, to increase booting speed.

Serviced (should be read as service d) is intended to replace the traditional init program. It's being written in C++.

Symbion Daemon Tool is a daemon master tool. It runs and monitors other daemons, restart it when necessary. If a daemon supports SDT then it can communicate with it and it can be controlled through it.

System V Hierarchical InitScript allows to parallelize the start of services in a given System V runlevel by defining dependencies between them. And it is only 150 lines of shell script...

This is Rivoreo custom edition of the sysvinit program. The original sysvinit project page is at http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/sysvinit/ The original sysvinit Debian package project page is at http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-sysvinit/

FreeRC is an init suite consisting of boot scripts written in Lua and a small, fast, and portable init daemon.

This project aims to make such Open Source utilities by which one can shoot any problem with/without having technical knowledge/skills.Tuxguru's Rescue tablet resolves many problems including Passwords,Grub,Backup,Recovery,Partition,Installations,etc..

Many complex storage environments running within GNL/Linux could benefit from increased disassembly and resource remediation during shutdown. Underdog an alternate /init to create a "late" user context to resume control during shutdown to park media and detach network devices. Currently there is a fully working initramfs (mkinitramfs/mkinitrd) replacement that is capable of building the early user context images both as separate files or built into the kernel image. The working proof of concept code for the alternate /init is too messy to sahre just now. /doh.

WebSphere doesn't come with an init.d script to start it up when Linux boots; so I wrote one.

a2webd created to facilitate launch a2web a lightweight Web User Interface for aria2 with remote control support for downloads

This is a really simple BOOTP server, which uses NIS maps to retrieve host information (host name, IP address).

cinit is a fast, parallel booting, true dependency supporting init system with support for profiles.

Set of tools needed to setup and maintain encrypted partitions under unix systems (initially linux). Especially helpfull when doing root device encryption. Features xml configuration, multiple users, usb "tokens" (usb mass storage) and key hierarchy.

daemontools is a collection of tools for managing UNIX services

Depinit is an alternative init program that can handle parallel execution, dependencies, true roll-back, pipelines, improved signaling and unmounting filesystems on shutdown. It incorporates ideas from sysvinit, simpleinit, daemontools and make. At present, it is a bit experimental, and requires good knowledge of the initialisation process to set up.

Lightweight containers have made running a single process without normal init systems like systemd or sysvinit practical. However, omitting an init system often leads to incorrect handling of processes and signals, and can result in problems such as containers that can’t be gracefully stopped, or leaking containers that should have been destroyed. dumb-init is simple to use and solves many of these problems: you can just add it to the front of any container’s command, and it will take on the role of PID 1 for itself. It immediately spawns your process as PID ~2, and then proxies on any signals it receives. This helps to avoid special kernel behavior applied to PID 1, while also handling regular responsibilities of the init system (like reaping orphaned zombie processes). dumb-init is a simple process supervisor and init system designed to run as PID 1 inside minimal container environments (such as Docker). It is deployed as a small, statically-linked binary written in C.

eINIT is a replacement for the long standard sysvinit. It aims to be yet one of the fastest and most configurable init systems around.

eINIT is an Init System for POSIX-compliant operating systems. The primary focus is on speed and modularity and, unlike other init systems, this one can be used in combination with others. Benchmarks suggest that einit is faster than initng and upstart.

An encrypted root overlay fs. Provides initrd data. For instructional use only.

genhostname is a linux perl script running at runlevel2 boot and changes the computers hostname to PC-XXXXXXXXXX deppending on the eth0 mac address or the wireless network card macaddress there is 2 scrips in the download. install the one you need.

Getwifi allows Linux users to join wireless networks easily by joining available networks in an order specified by the user. Getwifi is configured using a single file which specifies networks, optional WEP keys, and the order in which to join networks.

A set of bash scripts implementing hardware and system profiles for linux. Configuration files may be switched and scripts run dependent on the state of things such as hardware configuration, power management, or network connections.

init4boot provides iSCSI boot for Xen dom0 and domU, kvm guests and bare metal systems - currently for Debian, Ubuntu and Fedora. It's an extensible tool set for creating initramfs with support for: iSCSI, lvm2, md, multipath, network, tftp config,
