This is apparently an apt-cdrom issue, has nothing to do with busybox ;)

In /target, when I run `apt-get install busybox' (or anything else
for that matter), I see the following output (typed into email from
a virtual machine, so expect typos):

# apt-get install busybox

The file in question (busybox_..deb) is present in 
/media/cdrom0/poll/main/b/busybox/
directory. So it appears to be apt-cdrom which is at fault, or cdrom: apt 
handler.

Thanks,
