In my experience you have to be careful with uClibc.. I also tried migrating to it and while the binaries seemed to run, I got various glitches and strange behavior.
BTW, WISP-Dist's initrd is based on busybox/ash/sed compiled against uClibc. E.Spakman wrote: > I managed to build an (allmost) complete version of Bering RC3 against > uClibc 0.9.12.
