Signal in init(8)?!

Strange thing happen.

  1. Start your FreeBSD single-user.
  2. Run /etc/netstart so your network is up.
  3. Run /etc/rc.d/sshd start so you have sshd
  4. Use ssh to login localhost, then su(1) to root
  5. Type “init q”

Then init(8) would crash with signal 11. Yes, it was killed. As soon as kernel found this, it would panic with “Going nowhere without my init!”.
