Works just fine here:
$ nl /etc/fstab | sed -n '1,2p;4p'
1 # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
2 #
4 proc /proc proc defaults 0
0
$ nl /etc/fstab | busybox sed -n '1,2p;4p'
1 # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
2 #
4 proc /proc proc defaults 0
0
So please give some more details about your system (version of Debian,
version of sed, etc.). Also please tell us what actually happens when
you try to run it.
