How?
----
-sinit exposes a set of operations via a FIFO. Normally
-this FIFO resides at '/var/run/sinit.fifo'. There are two
-commands currently supported, 'reboot' and 'poweroff'.
+There are 3 signals that sinit will act on.
+
+ SIGUSR1: powers off the machine.
+ SIGINT: reboots the machine (or alternatively via ctrl-alt-del).
+ SIGCHLD: reap children
To see how sinit integrates with the init scripts, then have
a look at [3].
