Not possible choose ubuntu init after add Ubuntu strata
 
I used hijacked Artix linux and Bedrock version 0.7.21
After `brl fetch ubuntu` and reboot, I cannot use ubuntu init during boot. Usually it is possible to use init from freshly added strata.
Only artix init.

`brl fetch` tries to get the most minimal instance of the given distro it can. Depending on the distro, this may or may not include an init. In Ubuntu's case, it does not include an init. If you want to boot with Ubuntu's init, you need to install Ubuntu's init.

This looked like spam to me, my bad if it wasn't.

In this case it wasn't, but I can see how the question looks like gibberish without a Bedrock Linux specific background.

Bedrock can bootstrap parts of other distros with a utility called `brl fetch`, and Bedrock can let you boot with inits from different distros via a menu marcin- showed in a picture. marcin- was surprised the init selection menu did not contain Ubuntu's init after he used `brl fetch` to bootstrap ubuntu. What he or she was missing was the fact that `brl fetch` grabs a minimal version of whatever is requested which sometimes lacks an init. He or she has to install ubuntu's init for it to show up in the menu.
