  Hi Avery,

  You may be interested in reading the thread at:
  https://www.mail-archive.com/supervision_at_list.skarnet.org/msg00081.html

  and especially my answer here:
  https://www.mail-archive.com/supervision_at_list.skarnet.org/msg00097.html

  The thing is, you only need one supervision tree, and it is possible
to run udevd, and other "internal" services, under it, but the runit
framework does not make it easy, since runsvdir is only started in
stage 2. My approach with s6 is to start the supervision tree as early
as possible, and run one-time initialization scripts once this tree is
available; the frontier between stage 1 and stage 2 is not as clear as
it is with runit.
