The block conversion changed the bodies of the reference sections but left every "**Syntax:**" header spelling the line-based format, so each page opened by teaching the format it then stopped using. Six files were missed entirely: runparts, files, capabilities, requirements, runlevels, and switchroot. runparts had no block spelling written down anywhere, though the parser has read `runparts`, `runparts-progress`, and `runparts-sysv` all along. tty gains a table per variant. Its three syntax lines carried nine positional fields between them, which no longer describes anything the parser accepts. Fixes #148 Signed-off-by: Joachim Wiberg <troglobit@gmail.com>

Requirements
Finit is capable of running on both desktop/server systems with udev and
embedded systems that usually come with BusyBox mdev. Some systems have
systemd-udev or eudev today instead of the original udev, Finit probes
for all of them at runtime and expects /dev/ to be a writable file
system using devtmpfs. It is also possible to run on a statically set
up /dev if needed. It is however not a good idea to have both udev
and mdev installed at the same time, this will lead to unpredictable
results.
At boot Finit calls either mdev or udevd to populate /dev, this is
done slightly differently and on systems with udev you might want to add
the following one-shot task early in your /etc/finit.conf:
run udevadm {
description = "Waiting for udev"
runlevel = "S"
command = "udevadm settle --timeout=120"
}
Finit has a built-in Getty for TTYs, but requires a working /bin/login
or /bin/sh, if no TTYs are configured in /etc/finit.conf.
For a fully operational system /var, /run and /tmp must be set up
properly in /etc/fstab -- which is iterated over at boot.
