Hmm;
replacing syslogd with the one from busybox did not work for me -
boot failed starting init...
Also busybox init seems not to be comaptible with LRP/eigerstein.
And I really see any need for poweroff :)
On the other hand I've included minix-support in busybox - allows me to
replace nearly all of ramdisk.lrp provided by Charles.

Ewald, short answer:
I needed "id -u" which safes me, to modify rp-pppoe scripts if there is a new
rp-pppoe build.
busybox is under active development and enhancement. I hope we will have more
commands available, working as we are used to from our normal distro's.
And if the busybox people improve the POSIXness scripts commands, why not
make use of it?
In fact I removed the code from POSIXness - didn't save much disk space, but
made the image a bit more consistent (KISS).
But using busybox/tinylogin whereever possible, let me build an image with a
lot more commands and saved that much disk space, I'm able to run seawall,
dnscache, tinydns, ez-ipupdate, xntpd, ramdisk-support and dhcpd from a
1680k eigerstein image with rp-pppoe.
I guess that's all, what's possible with one floppy disk.
