distrobox-init is the entrypoint of a created distrobox. Note that this HAS to run from inside a distrobox, will not work if you run it from your host.
This is not intended to be used manually, but instead used by distrobox-enter to set up the container's entrypoint.
distrobox-init will take care of installing missing dependencies (eg. sudo), set up the user and groups, mount directories from the host to ensure the tight integration.
Usage:
distrobox-init --name test-user --user 1000 --group 1000 --home /home/test-user
Options:
--name/-n: user name
--user/-u: uid of the user
--group/-g: gid of the user
--home/-d: path/to/home of the user
--help/-h: show this message
--init/-I: whether to use or not init
--pre-init-hooks: commands to execute prior to init
--verbose/-v: show more verbosity
--version/-V: show version
--: end arguments execute the rest as command to execute during init
This is used as entrypoint for the created container, it will take care of creating the users, setting up sudo, mountpoints, and exports.
You should not have to launch this manually, this is used by distrobox create to set up
container's entrypoint.
