The deprecation notice for automatic detection of the system type stated
that the automatic detection will be removed no later than 2010/03/01,
but it should state 2011/03/01.
- Fixes bugs #347583, #349389, both of which were triggered by cgroups
being detected as the LXC subsystem type.
- Makes it much easier to select "prefix" type.
- "rc -S" will now print a warning if you have not configured rc_sys in
/etc/rc.conf
- All other semantics of rc_sys are unchanged in this patch.

Split halt.sh into halt, killprocs, romount and savecache services.
The reboot runlevel is removed but mapped to shutdown.
The halt script should be moved to the sysvinit package.
The runlevels shutdown, reboot, sysinit and single should be called by
init(8) and shutdown(8) and not manually.
sysvinit users will have to add sulogin to their inittab to secure the
console.
mounting various bits in /dev and /sys.
init.sh JUST mounts /lib/rc/init.d (and /proc for Linux systems)
To make development of this easier we now return an empty RC_STRINGLIST
instead of a NULL for empty things.
If you don't have a udev init script installed, don't reboot your box OR
roll back to an older OpenRC version.
Lowercase all configurable variables, non configurations remain uppercase.
Replace rc_env_bool with rc_yesno.
Split localmount info procfs (Linux) and dumpon, savecore (BSD)
query runlevels, services and state without using bash. We also provide
libeinfo so other programs can easily use our informational functions.
As such, we have dropped the requirement of using bash as the init script
shell. We now use /bin/sh and have strived to make the scripts as portable
as possible. Shells that work are bash and dash. busybox works provided
you disable s-s-d. If you have WIPE_TMP set to yes in conf.d/bootmisc you
should disable find too.
zsh and ksh do not work at this time.
Networking support is currently being re-vamped also as it was heavily bash
array based. As such, a new config format is available like so
config_eth0="1.2.3.4/24 5.6.7.8/16"
or like so
config_eth0="'1.2.3.4 netmask 255.255.255.0' '5.6.7.8 netmask 255.255.0.0'"
We will still support the old bash array format provided that /bin/sh IS
a link it bash.
ChangeLog for baselayout-1 can be found in our SVN repo.
