I do have BB_FEATURE_LINUXRC enabled - it is enabled by default and I did not change either
Config.h or Makefile when I built busybox.  I was thinking that the busybox's reboot might not be
finding the correct init process so that is why I did a 

# kill -SIGTERM 9

as shown above - I still don't get a reboot - just the printf's that might make you think it
worked :)

Later,
Luke

ps.  ANY and all suggestions are VERY welcome.
