+<para>By default Psmisc's <userinput>pidof</userinput> program isn't installed.
+Generally, this isn't a problem because we later install the Sysvinit package,
+which provides a better <userinput>pidof</userinput> program. But if you're not
+going to use Sysvinit, you should complete the installation of Psmisc by
+creating the following symlink:</para>

+<screen><userinput>ln -s killall /bin/pidof</userinput></screen>
