Ok, the two problems I noticed with the base package when I installed it last night: no /etc/fstab, so fsck will always halt, giving as single user boot. Quite easy to fix <root device> / ext2fs defaults 1 1 Perhaps that should be part of a first time install script (ie, native install) Second, /etc/protocols would be nice: (Here are the main important entries)
ip 0 IP # internet protocol, pseudo protocol number icmp 1 ICMP # internet control message protocol tcp 6 TCP # transmission control protocol udp 17 UDP # user datagram protocol More can be added if needed. An example resolv.conf would be useful, but not strictly neccesary. I didn't check if /etc/services is there.
