Eric Andersen | 051e4c1 | 2002-04-27 12:16:48 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 48 | BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities |
| 49 | into a single small executable. It provides minimalist |
| 50 | replacements for most of the utilities you usually find in GNU |
| 51 | fileutils, shellutils, etc. The utilities in BusyBox generally |
| 52 | have fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; |
| 53 | however, the options that are included provide the expected |
| 54 | functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts. |
| 55 | BusyBox provides a fairly complete POSIX environment for any |
| 56 | small or embedded system. |

Eric Andersen | 1b17b01 | 2002-03-05 15:55:59 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 58 | <p>BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and |
| 59 | limited resources in mind. It is also extremely modular |
| 60 | so you can easily include or exclude commands (or |
| 61 | features) at compile time. This makes it easy to |
| 62 | customize your embedded systems. To create a working |
| 63 | system, just add /dev, /etc, and a kernel.</p> |

Eric Andersen | 7a6a773 | 2003-07-30 09:33:54 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 107 | Here goes another pre release for the new BusyBox stable |
| 108 | series. The last prerelease (pre1) was given quite a lot of |
| 109 | testing (thanks everyone!) which has helped turn up a number of |
| 110 | bugs, and these problems have now been fixed. |

Eric Andersen | 7a6a773 | 2003-07-30 09:33:54 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 114 | Highlights of -pre2 include updating the 'ash' shell to sync up |
| 115 | with the Debian 'dash' shell, a new 'hdparm' applet was added, |
| 116 | init again supports pivot_root, The 'reboot' 'halt' and |
| 117 | 'poweroff' applets can now be used without using busybox init. |
| 118 | an ifconfig buffer overflow was fixed, losetup now allows |
| 119 | read-write loop devices, uClinux daemon support was added, the |
| 120 | 'watchdog', 'fdisk', and 'kill' applets were rewritten, there were |
| 121 | tons of doc updates, and there were many other bugs fixed. |

Eric Andersen | 7a6a773 | 2003-07-30 09:33:54 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 131 | The point of the "-preX" versions is to get a larger group of |
| 132 | people and vendors testing, so any problems that turn up can be |
| 133 | fixed prior to the final 1.0.0 release. The main feature that |
| 134 | is still still on the TODO list before the final BusyBox 1.0.0 |
| 135 | release is adding module support for the new 2.6.x kernels. If |
| 136 | necessary, a -pre3 BusyBox release will happen on August 6th. |
| 137 | Hopefully (i.e. unless some horrible catastrophic problem |
| 138 | turns up) the final BusyBox 1.0.0 release will be ready by |
| 139 | then... |
