This is not a fact, it's a false assertion unless you have a different understanding of "unbootable" than me. And it's not what this very bug report is about. I've yet to see a bug report against runit-run about "unbootable" while the package is included in the past two Debian releases sarge and lenny, and squeeze and sid. After installing runit-run the system boots into "sysinit" by running /etc/init.d/rcS and provides getties. Other init scripts are not run by default. Because of that, the administrator needs to be informed before installing this package to migrate essential services before rebooting, like sshd if local access is not possible.
