S6-boot : 0.1.8-1


New version of s6-boot is here.

Somes changes come with this version. See the s6-boot NEWS file for a complete details


The main changes are :


  • New scripts at /etc/s6/data/scripts/modules.sh : This script parse all files coming from /usr/lib/modules-load.d,/run/modules-load.d,/etc/modules-load.d to load modules at boot time. The last directories supersedes the previous one for a same file name. The variable MODULES in /etc/s6.conf was removed.
    Well, if you want to start some particular modules at boot time, create a file at /etc/modules-load.d/mymodules.conf (create the directory if it doesn't exist yet) and write the name of the modules in this file. Be aware that an empty line must exist at the end of the file. Multiple name can be used but one name per line.
  • New scripts at /etc/s6/data/scripts/tmpfiles.sh : This script come from pacopts and do exactly the same thing but now it's done automatically at boot time. It's not necessary to use this file in your s6.local anymore. You can remove it from s6.local file.

As usual, bugs reports (are you kidding me? :) ) are welcome
