BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single
small executable. It provides replacements for most of the utilities you
usually find in GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc. 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 provides a fairly complete
environment for any small or embedded system.

<li><b>12 Sept 2003 -- BusyBox 1.0.0-pre3 released</b><p>
</ul>
Here goes the third pre-release for the new BusyBox stable
series. The last prerelease has held up quite well under
testing, but a number of problems have turned up as the number
of people using it has increased. Thanks everyone for all
the testing, bug reports, and patches!
If you wish to be a sponsor, or if you have already contributed and would like
your name added here, email <a href= "mailto:andersen@codepoet.org">Erik</a>.
<p>
If you have submitted a patch or a bug report to the busybox
mailing list and no one has emailed you explaining why your
patch was rejected, it is safe to say that your patch has
somehow gotten lost or forgotten. That happens sometimes.
Please re-submit your patch or bug report to the BusyBox
mailing list!
<p>
The point of the "-preX" versions is to get a larger group of
people and vendors testing, so any problems that turn up can be
fixed prior to the final 1.0.0 release. The main feature
(besides additional testing) that is still still on the TODO
list before the final BusyBox 1.0.0 release is sorting out the
modutils issues. For the new 2.6.x kernels, we already have
patches adding insmod and rmmod support and those need to be
integrated. For 2.4.x kernels, for which busybox only supports
a limited number of architectures, we may want to invest a bit
more work before we cut 1.0.0. Or we may just leave 2.4.x
module loading alone.
<p>
I had hoped this release would be out a month ago. And of
course, it wasn't since Erik became busy getting a release of
<a href="http://www.uclibc.org/">uClibc</a>
out the door. Many thanks to Glenn McGrath (bug1) for
stepping in and helping get a bunch of patches merged! I am
not even going to state a date for releasing BusyBox 1.0.0
-pre4 (or the final 1.0.0). We're aiming for late September...
But if this release proves as to be exceptionally stable (or
exceptionally unstable!), the next release may be very soon
indeed.
<p>
The <a href="downloads/Changelog">changelog</a> has all
the details. And as usual you can
<a href="downloads">download busybox here</a>.
<p>Have Fun!

<li><b>12 Sept 2003 -- BusyBox 1.0.0-pre3 released</b><p>
Here goes the third pre-release for the new BusyBox stable
series. The last prerelease has held up quite well under
testing, but a number of problems have turned up as the number
of people using it has increased. Thanks everyone for all
the testing, bug reports, and patches!
<p>
If you have submitted a patch or a bug report to the busybox
mailing list and no one has emailed you explaining why your
patch was rejected, it is safe to say that your patch has
somehow gotten lost or forgotten. That happens sometimes.
Please re-submit your patch or bug report to the BusyBox
mailing list!
<p>
The point of the "-preX" versions is to get a larger group of
people and vendors testing, so any problems that turn up can be
fixed prior to the final 1.0.0 release. The main feature
(besides additional testing) that is still still on the TODO
list before the final BusyBox 1.0.0 release is sorting out the
modutils issues. For the new 2.6.x kernels, we already have
patches adding insmod and rmmod support and those need to be
integrated. For 2.4.x kernels, for which busybox only supports
a limited number of architectures, we may want to invest a bit
more work before we cut 1.0.0. Or we may just leave 2.4.x
module loading alone.
<p>
I had hoped this release would be out a month ago. And of
course, it wasn't since Erik became busy getting a release of
<a href="http://www.uclibc.org/">uClibc</a>
out the door. Many thanks to Glenn McGrath (bug1) for
stepping in and helping get a bunch of patches merged! I am
not even going to state a date for releasing BusyBox 1.0.0
-pre4 (or the final 1.0.0). We're aiming for late September...
But if this release proves as to be exceptionally stable (or
exceptionally unstable!), the next release may be very soon
indeed.
<p>
The <a href="downloads/Changelog">changelog</a> has all
the details. And as usual you can
<a href="downloads">download busybox here</a>.
<p>Have Fun!
<p>
<p>
<li><b>30 July 2003 -- BusyBox 1.0.0-pre2 released</b><p>
Here goes another pre release for the new BusyBox stable
series. The last prerelease (pre1) was given quite a lot of
testing (thanks everyone!) which has helped turn up a number of
bugs, and these problems have now been fixed.
<p>
Highlights of -pre2 include updating the 'ash' shell to sync up
with the Debian 'dash' shell, a new 'hdparm' applet was added,
init again supports pivot_root, The 'reboot' 'halt' and
'poweroff' applets can now be used without using busybox init.
an ifconfig buffer overflow was fixed, losetup now allows
read-write loop devices, uClinux daemon support was added, the
'watchdog', 'fdisk', and 'kill' applets were rewritten, there were
tons of doc updates, and there were many other bugs fixed.
<p>
If you have submitted a patch and it is not included in this
release and Erik has not emailed you explaining why your patch
was rejected, it is safe to say that he has lost your patch.
That happens sometimes. Please re-submit your patch to the
BusyBox mailing list.
<p>
The point of the "-preX" versions is to get a larger group of
people and vendors testing, so any problems that turn up can be
fixed prior to the final 1.0.0 release. The main feature that
is still still on the TODO list before the final BusyBox 1.0.0
release is adding module support for the new 2.6.x kernels. If
necessary, a -pre3 BusyBox release will happen on August 6th.
Hopefully (i.e. unless some horrible catastrophic problem
turns up) the final BusyBox 1.0.0 release will be ready by
then...
<p>
The <a href="downloads/Changelog">changelog</a> has all
the details. As usual you can <a href="downloads">download busybox here</a>.

<h3>Hall of Shame!!!</h3>
The following products and/or projects appear to use BusyBox, but do not appear
to release source code as required by the BusyBox license. This is a violation
of the law! The distributors of these products are invited to contact <a href=
"mailto:andersen@codepoet.org">Erik Andersen</a> if they have any confusion as
to what is needed to bring their products into compliance, or if they have
already brought their product into compliance and wish to be removed from the
Hall of Shame.
<p>
Complying with the Busybox license is easy and completely free, so the
companies listed below should be ashamed of themselves. Furthermore, each
product listed here is subject to being legally ordered to cease and desist
distribution for violation of copyright law, and the distributor of each
product is subject to being sued for statutory copyright infringement damages
plus legal fees. Nobody wants to be sued, and <a
href="mailto:andersen@codepoet.org">Erik</a> certainly has better things to do
than sue people. But he will sue if forced to do so to maintain compliance.
Do everyone a favor and don't break the law -- if you use busybox, comply with
the busybox license by releasing the source code with your product.
