What “single task” did init do?

* Mount filesystems
* Spawn syslog, cron
* Spawn terminal login processes (getty)
* Respawn terminated getty processes
* Monitor other special stuff in inittab
* Spawn random other services, without monitoring their state
* Act as a general catch-all for orphaned processes when they terminate

This was all before systemd came on the scene.
