Sure. Multiple folks run LTP on embedded platforms on the list (I
used to run it on MIPS and PowerPC, but no longer work with the group
that developed on Linux, so I don't have access to that hardware), but
no one that I know of who uses busybox on the list (or at least hasn't
spoken up about using it recently).
There are issues with shell portability and utilities that once
upon a time some folks who actively developed on the list (Cyril,
Mike, me) tried to track down and fix, but interest seems to have
waned. If you find any issues, please point them out and I'll try to
resolve them one at a time.
Thanks!
