'make check' refreshes the sysroot through the setup-chroot rule, but running a test script by hand does not, so the test exercises whichever finit was installed last and reports on code that is no longer there. Both a passing and a failing run are then meaningless, and nothing says so. Compare the built binary against the installed one at startup and fail with the command that fixes it.

Finit is a fast, simple alternative to SysV init and systemd, designed for small and embedded Linux systems. It can also run on desktop and server systems, like finix.

For working examples, see the 🚀 contrib/ section or these tutorials:
- 🛠️ Buildroot embedded Linux,
- 📦 Debian GNU/Linux,
- ⛰️ Alpine Linux, and
- 🌌 Void Linux
Note
Finit can run on various Linux distributions, but the bundled install scripts are examples only. They have been tested on amd64 (x86_64) systems with standard configurations.
For embedded systems, see these Buildroot-based examples: myLinux, Infix, or br2-finit-demo.
