Re: noX
More experimenting. I was able to use CRUX pkgutils to install several packages on the busybox system (including using pkgutils to install pkgutils); tmux and sound are working, as well as gcc and make.
It's not quite as bloated as it looks. There are two kernels and several large framebuffer grabs on the partition.

Looks like a fun project.

Re: noX
If tmux works, libevent works, and if libevent wortk, curses work, and if curses work, everything works. Well done Sir!

Re: noX
*wipes coffee from the screen*
We should emphasize: 55MB expanded ISO file, so this is *the installed system size*. Fuck Debian with it's 700 minimum, or Ubuntu asking for a 6GB partition to start with.
2015 will be the year where Linux users compare their used hard drive space in Crunchyland.
I think I am officially in love with Pidsley

That's a very tiny little fella right there. Cool work Pids. I've long been a fan of uclibc, and it's impressive to see it at work in such a manner alongside busybox.
Re: noX
"BBQ Rape my X". Tried out Pidsley's minirc scripts, which work awesome, for a new toy-laptop. Downside being KMS for /dev/fb0 with nvidia graphics, so I swapped back to the older init until I have more time to play with it. (I copied the files over to a new directory so that they wouldn't be tied to a repo before removal.)
13MB RAM on boot with bbox, about 30MB using standard init. My friend, you have made init with busybox SUPER easy to do on Debian systems. Thanks for the effort. :)

Re: noX
^ You're welcome. Please let us know how you solve the KMS issue.
I should give full credit for the original idea and init scripts to "hut" on the Arch board: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=162606
I (slightly) modified the script and inittab again yesterday. I did not change any functionality, but the code is a bit cleaner now, and I hope it is also easier for other people to understand and modify. The inittab now uses getty instead of agetty, for better compatibility with busybox (busybox does not have agetty).
I also added an rc script for CRUX (which calls CRUX init scripts to start and stop services) and a guide for using busybox init with CRUX. The CRUX version of the rc script can also be used with other distros if start/stop scripts for the required services are placed in the /etc/rc.d directory.
