It provides minimalist - replacements for most of the utilities you usually find in GNU - fileutils, shellutils, etc. The utilities in BusyBox generally - have fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; - however, the options that are included provide the expected - functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts. - BusyBox provides a fairly complete POSIX environment for any - small or embedded system. - - <p>BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and - limited resources in mind. It is also extremely modular - so you can easily include or exclude commands (or - features) at compile time. This makes it easy to - customize your embedded systems.

The last prerelease (pre1) was given quite a lot of - testing (thanks everyone!) which has helped turn up a number of - bugs, and these problems have now been fixed. - - <p> - - Highlights of -pre2 include updating the 'ash' shell to sync up - with the Debian 'dash' shell, a new 'hdparm' applet was added, - init again supports pivot_root, The 'reboot' 'halt' and - 'poweroff' applets can now be used without using busybox init. - an ifconfig buffer overflow was fixed, losetup now allows - read-write loop devices, uClinux daemon support was added, the - 'watchdog', 'fdisk', and 'kill' applets were rewritten, there were - tons of doc updates, and there were many other bugs fixed. - <p> - - If you have submitted a patch and it is not included in this - release and Erik has not emailed you explaining why your patch - was rejected, it is safe to say that he has lost your patch. - That happens sometimes. Please re-submit your patch to the - BusyBox mailing list. - <p> - - The point of the "-preX" versions is to get a larger group of - people and vendors testing, so any problems that turn up can be - fixed prior to the final 1.0.0 release. The main feature that - is still still on the TODO list before the final BusyBox 1.0.0 - release is adding module support for the new 2.6.x kernels.
