In a series of tweets, ubuntuBSD project leader Jon Boden announced a few of the technical features coming to the soon-to-be-released ubuntuBSD 16.04 operating system.
We have to admit that it is an interesting and unique combination that hasn't been tried until now (at least not to our knowledge and not at the moment of writing this article). By using FreeBSD's kernel, ubuntuBSD is free from the systemd init system that many seem to be scared off these days.
According to Jon Boden, ubuntuBSD 16.04 will feature a combination of BusyBox and OpenRC init, as you can see from the tweet attached below. However, if someone wishes to use the venerable SysVinit instead, they should know that it is supported for the time being.
