| 24 | for any of the supported utilities. You can use /bin/busybox --install |
| 25 | to install BusyBox to the current directory (you do not want to do this |
| 26 | in / on your Debian system!). |

| 43 | BusyBox-static provides you with a statically linked simple stand alone shell |
| 44 | that provides all the utilities available in BusyBox. This package is |
| 45 | intended to be used as a rescue shell, in the event that you screw up your |
| 46 | system. Invoke "busybox sh" and you have a standalone shell ready to save |
| 47 | your system from certain destruction. Invoke "busybox", and it will list the |
| 48 | available builtin commands. |
