If busybox is being used as a rescue shell shouldn't it build in static mode by default? I've managed to break coreutils (ls, mv, cp etc) in the past by destroying a library they linked against, I wouldn't like that to happen with a rescue shell. Perhaps a local 'busyboxstatic' USE flag which defaults to being turned on would suit this better? Alastair. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
