The most important program in the package is /sbin/init. It is the first process started on boot and continues to run as process number 1 until the system halts. All other processes are descended from it.

Specifically, this package includes: init-d-script, fstab-decode, killall5, pidof . It also contains the library scripts sourced by init-d-script and other initscripts that were formally in lsb-base.

Note that not all init systems print messages to the system console, so that the logfile may remain empty; this is the case with systemd (the default init system). Try "journalctl -b" instead.
