BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single
|
|
|
|
small executable. It provides minimalist replacements for most of the
|
|
|
|
utilities you usually find in fileutils, shellutils, findutils, textutils,
|
|
|
|
grep, gzip, tar, etc. BusyBox provides a fairly complete POSIX environment
|
|
|
|
for any small or embedded system. The utilities in BusyBox generally have
|
|
|
|
fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options
|
|
|
|
that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much
|
|
|
|
like their GNU counterparts.

BusyBox has been written with size-optimization and limited resources in
|
|
|
|
mind. It is also extremely modular so you can easily include or exclude
|
|
|
|
commands (or features) at compile time. This makes it easy to customize
|
|
|
|
your embedded systems. To create a working system, just add a kernel, a
|
|
|
|
shell (such as ash), and an editor (such as elvis-tiny or ae).

When you create a link to BusyBox for the function you wish to use, when

|
|
|
BusyBox is called using that link it will behave as if the command itself

has been invoked.

Beware that many operators need to be escaped or quoted for shells.
|
|
|
|
Comparisons are arithmetic if both ARGs are numbers, else
|
|
|
|
lexicographical. Pattern matches return the string matched between
|
|
|
|
\( and \) or null; if \( and \) are not used, they return the number
|
|
|
|
of characters matched or 0.

WARNING: This field has a non-traditional
|
|
|
|
meaning for BusyBox init! The id field is used
|
|
|
|
by BusyBox init to specify the controlling tty
|
|
|
|
for the specified process to run on. The
|
|
|
|
contents of this field are appended to "/dev/"
|
|
|
|
and used as-is. There is no need for this field
|
|
|
|
to be unique, although if it isn't you may have
|
|
|
|
strange results. If this field is left blank,
|
|
|
|
it is completely ignored. Also note that if
|
|
|
|
BusyBox detects that a serial console is in use,
|
|
|
|
then all entries containing non-empty id fields
|
|
|
|
will _not_ be run. BusyBox init does nothing
|
|
|
|
with utmp. We don't need no stinkin' utmp.

askfirst acts just like respawn, but before
|
|
|
|
running the specified process it displays the
|

line "Please press Enter to activate this
|
|
|
|
console." and then waits for the user to press
|
|
|
|
enter before starting the specified process.

Use lash just as you would use any other shell. It
|
|
|
|
properly handles pipes, redirects, job control, can be
|
|
|
|
used as the shell for scripts (#!/bin/sh), and has a
|
|
|
|
sufficient set of builtins to do what is needed. It does
|
|
|
|
not (yet) support Bourne Shell syntax. If you need
|
|
|
|
things like ``if-then-else'', ``while'', and such, use
|
|
|
|
ash or bash. If you just need a very simple and
|
|
|
|
extremely small shell, this will do the job.

GNU Libc uses the Name Service Switch (NSS) to configure the
|
|
|
|
behavior of the C library for the local environment, and to
|
|
|
|
configure how it reads system data, such as passwords and group
|
|
|
|
information. BusyBox has made it Policy that it will never use
|
|
|
|
NSS, and will never use libc calls that make use of NSS. This
|
|
|
|
allows you to run an embedded system without the need for
|
|
|
|
installing an /etc/nsswitch.conf file and without /lib/libnss_*
|
|
|
|
libraries installed.

If you are using a system that is using a remote LDAP server for
|
|
|
|
authentication via GNU libc NSS, and you want to use BusyBox,
|
|
|
|
then you will need to adjust the BusyBox source. Chances are
|
|
|
|
though, that if you have enough space to install of that stuff
|
|
|
|
on your system, then you probably want the full GNU utilities.
