A year ago or so I stumbled on a similar problem. After searching for a while, I found the process signals being blocked (look in /proc/PID/status, for init /proc/1/status). If process signals got blocked, the kernel signal for CTRL-ALT-DEL (SIGINT to process 1) can't be delivered. This is the same reason why Ctrl-C in a Busybox shell started directly from an linuxrc script is not working as expected (even when using cttyhack). May be this is your problem, so check /proc/1/status when CTRL-ALT-DEL does not work and look at the signal flags (SigBlk, SigIgn, SigCgt). -- Harald _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
