To solve the fundamental problem, the plan is to replace /sbin/init
with an implementation that is able to handle kernel events. It will
allow us to modify the boot system for the early boot to become event
based, while keeping the existing boot stuff working. We could rewrite
sysvinit to become event based, or have a look at the existing boot
systems that handle kernel events. After checking the options and the
systems used in other distributions, upstart seems like the most
promising candidate. It is used by Ubuntu and Fedora at the moment,
and solves the problem in a backwards compatible way. The plan is to
change upstart to actually use /etc/inittab, to ease the switch
between sysvinit and upstart. We will also change the init.d script
handling to treat upstart jobs as init.d scripts, to provide an
alternative for architectures lacking upstart support. These changes
should make it transparent for the users which package provides
/sbin/init, and thus make it easier to migrate from sysvinit to
upstart.
