i just noticed that when i press ctrl-alt-del my machine halts.
i'm a bit confused with /etc/runit/{reboot,stopit}
on documentation you said that stage3 reboots if o+x /etc/runit/reboot,
and CONT makes it enter stage3 if o+x /etc/runit/stopit
but on the debian sample /etc/runit/reboot is never touch-ed/chmod-ed
changing ctrl-alt-del to touch/chmod reboot instead of stop makes it not
enter stage3.
should i touch/chmod both on ctrl-alt-del? i don't see proper results
neither.
thanks in advance,
Alejandro Mery

The /etc/runit/reboot file tells the runit program to either reboot or
halt the system when stage 3 terminates.

Yes.

True. This means whether the system halts or reboots depends on the
current permissions of /etc/runit/reboot, and is not set explicitly.

If you want the system to always reboot (or halt) on ctrl-alt-del, chmod
/etc/runit/reboot additionally to /etc/runit/stopit in ctrlaltdel. That
should do it.
