So you can have busybox-x86_64 in the binaries directory and it works without renaming it, so you can make a busybox-suid with all the commands that need the suid bit, or if your kink runs to selinux you can have a busybox-net with the stuff that accesses the network, so that when you incrementally upgrade a system (as described in the FAQ) you can add a busybox-1.24.2 to the system next to the old "busybox" from your 5 year old router BSP... Well you asked. :) Rob _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
