busybox could provide a virtual/logger so you don't need to use metalog, |
| 11 |
sdsc-syslog, socklog, sysklogd, syslog-ng or syslogread. |

Same goes with other busybox tools. hdparm is mentioned, but htere is |
| 14 |
also a web server etc. |

Problem is just that there are no init.d scripts in busybox for those. |

just an idea... There could be an additional busybox-initd package with |
| 24 |
those scripts. The ebuild could have busybox as dependency and if for |
| 25 |
example USE=syslog, it would install check the busybox config if syslog |
| 26 |
is enabled and it would provide a virtual/logger. |

I have some simplified init.d scripts in my alpine-baselayout. |
