yes :) |

or... I'm actually using dash currently because coldplugging takes like |
| 28 |
3 minutes with ash and 5 seconds with dash. (its fixed in next release |
| 29 |
of busybox so I'll drop dash) |

I have one already. But its designed to load binary packages to ram |
| 35 |
during boot, LEAF style. |

You can probably reuse parts of it. The source package is here: |
| 40 |
http://tanael.org/alpine/baselayout-alpine/baselayout-alpine-0.9.6.tar.gz |
| 41 |

I kind of immitate runlevels, (using rc0.d, rc1.d etc) but the big |
| 43 |
difference from normal sysv is that *all* runlevels or "boot stages" are |
| 44 |
executed. |

I had to patch some of the init.d scripts. Typically it was replacing: |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
if [ expr && expr ] ... |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
with: |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
if [ expr ] && [ expr ] ... |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
If we could get the init.d script writers to try to not be too bashish, |
| 55 |
it would be great. |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
If there is interrest I could dump my patches somwhere. |

If you want to see it in action, try: |
