Stop-gap "settle" equivalent of udevadm settle for migration scenarios. Polls /sys/kernel/uevent_seqnum every 50ms and exits zero when the sequence number has been stable for 200ms (or non-zero after -t SECONDS timeout, default 30s). This is racy by design -- a slow probe firing after we return still races -- so the doc steers users toward dev/, class/, and bind/ conditions for any service they control. Settle is for legacy boot scripts and init transitions where condition wiring isn't feasible. Signed-off-by: Joachim Wiberg <troglobit@gmail.com>
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.
