Here it comes. Not everything is checked, rewritten, because I first
copied another version and adapted afterwards for my needs. Check
default, that is working. All those using using #!/bin/busybox <some
command> are working, tested (I wanted to enforce the busybox usage,
because I had the "original" stuff too. As you'll see, I had problems
with devfsd (this is "original", not busybox version, because I could not
adapt the /etc/devfsd.conf file yet for busybox's devfsd). Any help?
There is also another problem with busybox's devfsd, it works only with
"original" modprobe, not busybox one, if MODLOAD is used (autoloading of
modules).
I have subscribed to the busybox list (too), maybe I'll some help there.
Also I have to check how it works with msh (to support uClinux too)
