Hi,
Thanks for reply.
I am using busybox-1.00-pre4 instead of busybox-1.00 because I
have product on gcc version 2.96 and busybox-1.00 required GLIBC_2.3.
I tried

> try to execute ash instead of init
>mv /sbin/init /sbin/init.old
> echo "#!/bin/sh
>while true; /bin/ash; done" > /sbin/init
>chmod a+x /sbin/init

But,It gives

Going to execute /sbin/init
sh:

It gives blinking cursor.It does nothing afterwards.
Does it mean I have to execute init? I tried to type something, it
does nothing unlike normal shell.
Plz help me.

Hi,
I made distribution for Soekris4521 using linux2.2.16,
UClibc0.9.19 and busybox-1.00-pre4.

Why you use busybox-1.00-pre4?

The "pre4" means it is not stable but the 4th try to deliver
busybox-1.00. I suggest to use busybox-1.00

try to execute ash instead of init

mv /sbin/init /sbin/init.old
echo "#!/bin/sh
while true; /bin/ash; done" > /sbin/init
chmod a+x /sbin/init

or try this

etc/init.d/rcS is

mount -t proc none /proc
while true; /bin/ash; done

an try to execute init by hand
