Busybox is a multicall binary used to provide a minimal subset of
|
|
POSIX style commands and specialized functions.
|
|
|
|
It is geared toward the very small, i.e. boot floppies, embedded-
|
|
systems, etc. Specifically it is used in the Debian Rescue/Install
|
|
system (which caused the original busybox to be made), the Linux Router
|
|
Project, and others.
|
|
|
|
As of version 0.20 there is a version number. : )
|
|
Also as of version 0.20, BB is modularized to allow an easy build of
|
|
only the BB parts you need, to reduce binary size.
|
|
|
|
Edit the file busybox.def.h and comment out the parts you do not need
|
|
using C++ comments (//)
|
|
|
|
After the build is complete a busybox.links file is generated to allow
|
|
you to easily make the sym/hard links to the busybox binary.
|
|
|
|
Note the modular system is Makefile based, and purposely very
|
|
simplistic. It does no dependency checking. That is left for you
|
|
to figure out by trial and error.
