could people update and try out busybox-1.00-r4 ? i finally stopped being
lazy and ported all the utils from upstream busybox into 1.00-r4 ...
once you emerge it, you'll be left with /bin/bb which is now your fun rescue
shell ... simply execute `bb` and you're all set to go !
for a list of commands implemented, just run `busybox`

I find it a little strange that you implemented bb to call ash_main. Was
the reason for this due to being unable to pass parms to the linux
kernel init command line? init="/bin/bb sh" ?
/bin/bb on uClinux for example is /bin/busybox but renamed. Seems
logical to me to stick with the same logic.
You ripped out syslogd/udhcpd/login/logger/httpd/watchdog (this makes my
life harder then need be. Infact I want to cry)
Please don't say USE=savedconfig.. I know it exists. I wrote it for
other ppl to use an option to get a slimmed down. Not myself.

Strange again.. More so if your libc is whats screwed and your trying to
recover that. Only way a user is to know what applets are there is by
running /bin/busybox from the command line before the system got
screwed. Granted anything they will call while in the asm_main if it
exists it will call it unless they
Sorry but I do not like what this bb change would do to the default
deployment of busybox and would prefer to keep the default closer to
what allsysconfig is supposed todo.
