Actually, if you decide to go this way, you probably find packages from my
overlay 'powerman' is good starting point:
- Use my sys-process/runit instead of ebuild in main portage.
My version doesn't install boot scripts /etc/runit/{1,2,3}, because
examples of these files installed by portage version of runit are trying
to boot system using gentoo usual way, thus turning runit into mostly
senseless drop-in replacement for /sbin/init.
- My package power-misc/runit-scripts provide /etc/runit/{1,2,3} boot
scripts implemented in native for runit way. They are very small (about
200 lines bash script used to completely boot and initialize system)
and easy to update for your needs.
- My packages runit-service/service-* will provide you with scripts to run
many daemons under runit supervision.
Together these packages provide complete replacement for gentoo default
boot scripts and services (in /etc/init.d/*). I'm using this for many
years on my home workstation and all servers, and all my friends who use
Gentoo also use this way to boot system and run services because it's much
simpler and reliable.
