Hi there,

Guillem ported sysvinit a while ago, it's in the pool at khazad now.

For those of you who feel brave to try it out, you need to install it manualy
because the FreeBSD init (installed by default) is version 5.0:

  wget -c ftp://khazad.dyndns.org/pub/apt/dists/unstable/main/binary-freebsd-i386/sysvinit_2.85-7+kbsd_freebsd-i386.deb
  dpkg -i sysvinit_2.85-7+kbsd_freebsd-i386.deb

Have fun (specialy if it renders your system unbootable) ;)
