Section: utils
|
|
Description: Tiny utilities for the debian-installer and for embedded systems.
|
|
BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single
|
|
small executable. It provides minimalist replacements for the most common
|
|
utilities you would usually find on your desktop system (i.e. ls, cp, mv,
|
|
mount, tar, 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 is used by the debian-installer. Installing BusyBox onto your Debian
|
|
system is not recommended, unless you are intended to make a very small embedded
|
|
system. Chances are good that for embedded systems, you will want to recompile
|
|
to only include the tools and utilities you wish to include.

BusyBox-static provides you with a statically linked simple stand alone shell
|
|
that provides all the utilities available in BusyBox. This package is
|
|
intended to be used as a rescue shell, in the event that you screw up your
|
|
system. Invoke "busybox sh" and you have a standalone shell ready to save
|
|
your system from certain destruction. Invoke "busybox", and it will list the
|
|
available builtin commands.
