/etc/inittab does not exist!

[fabio_poiatti]

I builded with success a     fsl-image-validation-imx    

The image is downloaded in the IMX6ULL14x14 EVK and working well .... 

Trying to understand the startup sequence I saw the first process  (Pid 1)

to be /sbin/init .... but how is it possible to configure it if /etc/inittab does not exist?

Thanks

Fabio

I would like to have sysvinit instead of systemd (default) 

but the configuration in conf/local.conf is not correct I  think

becasue I have always systemd

DISTRO_FEATURES_append = "sysvinit "
VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_init_manager = "sysvinit"

Accordingly to Yocto team, we stopped support of non-systemd configurations.

You can use /etc/rc.local file for adding scripts to startup.

Hi, fabio mario poiatti‌

I assume you have systemd running as an initialization system in your machine because /etc/inittab does not exist in your filesystem. systemd does init related configurations using unit files.

Please refer below links regarding systemd:

1. Detailed information about Unit Files
2. Automatically start services with systemd
