20 years agoWell, I have made some progress. I downloaded the source code for version 1.01 from busybox.net and after massaging the Makefile and Rules.mak to correclty find the include and library files, I got it to build. I put it into my romfs and it basically runs. It does not run when linked as init at boot time, but I can run it as the target of the links for many apps. I am still running the distributed busybox version:
init started: BusyBox v1.00-pre8 (2005.06.20-12:07+0000) multi-call binary at init time, as init.exe gives a init: exec failed message after loading the ram filesystems. At least I can control the applications I support now. Any ideas why the version 1.01 will not run as init?
