task/process managment does not work

[Miroslaw Dach]

Dear All,

	I have recompiled several times the busybox and each time when I 
boot my embedded linux ppc405 board with busy box I have difficulties to 
manage tasks. 

My observation is as following:

ps command does not show any process 

# ps
PID Uid		VmSize	Stat	Command

This is all what ps prints

I have tried also top and the result is as following:
top: can't find process info in /proc

The /proc directory is simply empty

Is it somehow possible to enable process managing?

My second question is how to execute at startup the dropbear (sshd 
equivalent) as a daemon?

I have tried  to create the file:

/etc/init.d/rcS

#!../../../bin/ash
/tmp/ssh/dropbear -F -E 2> /dev/null &
echo "Init ends here"


Each time I reboot my board I get the message "Init ends here"

but "dropbear" does not run.

when I start it from command line 
/tmp/ssh/dropbear -F -E 2> /dev/null &
there is no problem

Best regards

Mirek
