SPS Linux live (Splux)

This disc boots with a real init as PID 1: systemd if the machine that
built the ISO had it, otherwise busybox init with gettys on tty1 and
ttyS0. The shell on those ttys is a child of init, not init itself.

1. Identify the destination disk (lsblk).
2. Run:  setup
   Guided partitioning is in the installer. You can also mount a
   filesystem on /mnt and choose "use existing mounts".

setup asks which init to install: systemd (default) or OpenRC.
Those packages conflict; sget will not install both.

On a Plasma live image, open Konsole and run setup. On this TTY image,
run it from the shell.

SPS Linux is the distro (informally Splux). SPS the package system is
separate; other projects can use it without this live image or installer.
