As a temporary workaround reference for me(when I install this again
after a while forgetting eveything that I had to read up to fix the
problem) as well as others, here are the steps.
Steps to be taken after the installer fails.
1. sudo touch /etc/inittab
2. sudo dpkg -i /tmp/daemontools/admin/daemontools_xxxx.deb
3. (Add the config mentioned by mrts to /etc/event.d/svscan)
sudo pico /etc/event.d/svscan
add this>>
start on runlevel 2
start on runlevel 3
start on runlevel 4
start on runlevel 5
stop on runlevel 0
stop on runlevel 1
stop on runlevel 6
respawn
exec /usr/bin/svscanboot
<<
4. sudo initctl start svscan
>From next boot onwards, you don't need to do (4).
