StarPusher Mac OS
This paper documents a program in Mac OS X called SystemStarter. SystemStarter brings the system from its initial state up to a state where basic services are running and a user may log in. It replaces the previous /etc/rc startup sequence employed by Mac OS X's predecessors in order to address some additional goals set forth by the Mac OS X project.

- Starpath is first in line to praise the value and efficiency of Mac computers. We use them ourselves whenever possible. As mariners, however, we are still left with the fact that the vast majority of maritime software is still optimized for PCs. This may change in the future, or maybe not.

SystemStarter is part of the BSD subsystem in Mac OS X, now known as Darwin, though it's creation predates Darwin as an open source project; it was therefore created by a single author, though it now enjoys several contributors.
