I didn't clear CC on purpose. Perhaps in a rude way,
but it did serve a useful purpose - I let you know
that I can't work on your problem because I don't have
enough information.

Now I did.

It does not say anything about running things from /etc/init/rcS.

Not entirely. What does it mean "from /etc/init/rcS"?
How do you run /etc/init/rcS? Is it run as
::sysinit:/etc/init/rcS
or
::wait:/etc/init/rcS
or
::once:/etc/init/rcS
or
::restart:/etc/init/rcS
or
/dev/console:ctrlaltdel:/etc/init/rcS
or any other possible way?

Ok. I propose stop getting emotional and start talking
in technical terms. Can you show me you /etc/inittab
and describe what you are doing, what do you expect to see
and what do you see instead?
I have qemy image and can try to reproduce it, as soon
as I will know what to do.
Please also specify your busybox version and attach
busybox .config you used to build the binary.
