@ska @lanodan @domi @navi Been using Alpine for years on my primary hosts. Never heard of setup-utmp, and set up mdevd manually. They’re definitely under documented. Maybe we need an intro(1) man page , in the style of #openbsd.

@whynothugo @ska @domi @navi Or maybe making the handbook BSD-level of useful? https://docs.alpinelinux.org/user-handbook/0.1a/index.html
