Hi,

Thanks for the info, but it looks like your system requires a 2.6 kernel, 
while I'm using a 2.2 kernel... (it's only a wireless to ethernet router)

I've got everything working in the finish using glibc - even though I ended 
up having to update to a later glibc, and had to add libresolv and 
libnss_dns to get host name lookups working (which werent before) I've made 
a net space saving of over 100KB on the disk thanks to symbol stripping the 
libraries a bit more carefully, and the new version of busybox having 
builtins for many things that I previously had externally. (telnetd, ash, 
tinylogin, traceroute, to name a few) I've even managed to add in a lot of 
things that weren't there before such as tftp and tfp client, cron, and a 
few others.

Ah.... isn't busybox great :-)

Regards,
Simon
