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.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The busybox development series has been under construction for
|
|
||||||
nearly two years now. Which is just entirely too long... So
|
|
||||||
it is with great pleasure that I announce the imminent release
|
|
||||||
of a new stable series. Due to the huge number of changes
|
|
||||||
since the last stable release (and the usual mindless version
|
|
||||||
number inflation) I am branding this new stable series verison
|
|
||||||
1.0.x...

The point of "-preX" versions is to get a larger group of
|
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.

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.

people and vendors testing, so any problems that turn up can be

fixed prior to the magic 1.0.0 release (which should happen

fixed prior to the final 1.0.0 release. The main feature that

later this month)... I plan to release BusyBox 1.0.0-pre2 next

is still still on the TODO list before the final BusyBox 1.0.0

Monday (July 21st), and, if necessary, -pre3 on July 28th.

release is adding module support for the new 2.6.x kernels. If

You don't really need to bother with the

vs the stable version are way too extensive to easily enumerate.

But you can take a look if you really want too.
