well but busybox is big nowadays and generally compiled against glibc.
i'm quite eager to kick busybox out of default Debian initramfs-tools
to have an klibc only default initramfs. those tools are needed atm,
and there is not enough yet. afaik suse adds sed on klibc with a minimal
patch and we'd liked to have stat, kill and readlink on klibc-utils.

how about busybox on klibc?

I made a brief attempt to do busybox on klibc before klcc was working
right for me.  I should try that again.  In Ubuntu, we already do a
separate build pass of busybox to get just the features that we want, it
would be easy to play with this.

I'll let you know.  It'll take me a couple days - between travelling and
the long weekend, I'm a bit behind.


I think the main things that aren't in klibc are the userid and the network databases. They should be reasonably easy to stub out.
