This is the case, the live directory is on run with tmpfs type and this option
: mode=0755,nosuid,nodev

Yes, sorry for my bad language :)

So, i do a simple test : i boot with this init file :
# Export good path
/usr/local/bin/export PATH "/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin"
cd /
# parse s6.conf before loading environment
#foreground {
# redirfd -r 0 /etc/s6/s6.conf
# pipeline { s6-grep -vF -- "#" }
# forstdin -nCd"\n" -- conf
# import -ui conf
# multidefine -d"=" $conf { var value }
# foreground {
# if { mkdir -p /run/s6-conf/ }
# redirfd -w 1 /run/s6-conf/$var
# s6-echo -- $value
# }
#}
# Clean environment
emptyenv -p
s6-envdir -if /etc/s6/env
# Be clean and safe
s6-setsid -qb --
umask 022
if {
s6-echo -- "********** Booting Obarun under S6\n Under
development\n please give a feedback http://obarun.org/forum/
******************\n"
}
# Copy service for pid1 in the right place
import -i stage1serv
foreground {
cp -a ${stage1serv} /run/s6
}
# Create symlink to /run/s6-run
if {
forbacktickx -p -0 i { s6-ls -0 /run/s6 }
import -u i
foreground
{
if { s6-mkdir -p -m 0755 /run/s6-run/ }
s6-ln -s -- /run/s6/${i} /run/s6-run/
}
}
redirfd -r 0 /dev/null
redirfd -wnb 1 /run/s6-run/service/s6-svscan-log/fifo
# Now we are good for stage2, start it
background {
s6-setsid --
fdmove -c 2 1
/etc/stage2
}
unexport !
fdmove -c 2 1
s6-envdir -I /run/s6-run/service/.s6-svscan/
s6-svscan -st0 /run/s6-run/service
and on stage 2 i just have a bundle with 2 oneshot service on it. one named
fsro for remount / with ro options like this :
#!/usr/local/bin/execlineb -P
fdmove -c 2 1
mount -o remount,ro /
and the other named fsrw for remount / with rw options. A dependencies is made
under it calling fsro
and nothing more. tty1 is started on early boot time.
So this is the output of the command : lsof | awk '$4 ~ /[0-9].*w/' (note: if i
do : lsof / | awk '$4 ~ /[0-9].*w/', nothing appear)

Surely i do something wrong, but honestly, i don't see where

Yeah, you are absolutly right, but if a good exercice for me to understand how
doing stuff :).
I have a another weird behaviour with s6rc-fdholder. It never bring up at boot,
i need to start it manualy. This is the expected behaviour?
Hoping that i'm not annoying with my newbies question/posts.
