I do not know when that was fixed in the Linux kernel.

Yes, it is a kernel bug in older versions of the Linux kernel.

We recently upgraded from an older version of busybox to 1.31.0, and
now there seems to be a problem with 'cat'. If I cat two files to
stdout it works fine, but if I redirect output into a file using ash,
the second file overwrites the first:
# echo abcdefghijk > a
# echo 12345 > b
ter a device is
disconnected from the network, then you need to set your lease time to
a small value.

After some testing with 1.27.2, it looks like this has been fixed
I just ran into the "ntpd stops startup forever problem". Has this
been fixed?

This seems rather, um, unhelpful. Notice that I didn't pass the '-n'
option telling it "do not daemonize". So I naively expected it to
daemonize.
What's the "right" way to start up ntpd from /etc/init.d/

. Could be either, depending on how you got there.
Ah, I forgot about that. If you're looking at the _first_ login
prompt after the motd contents, then getty is running. If you 've
tried to login and failed, and are looking at a "retry" login prompt,
then login is running.

The short answer is that the values shown by top are almost completely
useless
to be
difficult. The access times for the hardware involved might be a
significant portion of the CPU time used by some of these threads as
well: one of the peripherals has very slow bus timings compared to
everything else.

I already have Gentoo on an SD card running on the BeagleBone so I
wouldn't need a cross compiler. Could I do the above, copy
/tmp/somewhere to / on another SD card, set up /boot, and boot? It
couldn't be so easy :)

I would like to build as minimal of a system as possible on a
BeagleBone. I only need ALSA and jackd to work. Would this work well
with busybox? I'm very familiar with Gentoo but a system like this
would be set up entirely outside of the Gentoo framework?
