Hmm, tried installing it under Ubuntu but id didn't work.

What i did was:

    - Go to http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/debian/pool/main/r/runit/
      and grabbed

             runit_1.5.1-1.diff.gz
             runit_1.5.1-1.dsc
             runit_1.5.1.orig.tar.gz

    - Unpacked and built a .deb using

             dpkg-source -x runit_1.5.1-1.dsc
             cd runit_1.5.1
             dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b -uc

    - Installed the deb using dpkg.
    - Fiddled with the grub boot menu stuff as per the article.
    - Ran "sudo sudo runit-init 6"

At this point it complained about a missing directory /etc/runit
so I backed out all the changes.

If I get some time I might try this again and figure out why its
not getting set up correctly. Maybe on my old laptop.
