I just don't get why you guys are being so harsh. The example from 
Wolfgang's website told me to:

~ # mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock5 /new-root
~ # cd /new-root/
/new-root # pivot_root . old-root
~ # umount /old-root/proc
~ # chroot . kill -QUIT 1

All I asked was why this didn't work when I ran it from within 
/etc/init/rcS. I later found out that the problem was that inittab 
wasn't being reloaded when I called "kill -1 1". I honestly thought it 
was a Busybox specific issue otherwise I wouldn't have posted.

If there is another Busybox mailing list for system integrators and 
implementors, then please refer me to it and I will go there instead.

But getting all 133t and calling people n00bs isn't the way to win 
friends and influence people. You'll just piss them off, and some of 
those people (like myself) occasionally find bugs in your code, submit 
patches and contribute to these great open source projects.
