You need to use start-stop-daemon to launch a daemon, unless your inetd daemonizes itself (most do not). Otherwise, when your init script exits, the inetd child process will be killed by the kernel. There is a start-stop-daemon busybox applet in CVS HEAD (but not in the current stable release) -Erik -- Erik B.
