-Using Busybox as your Default Shell
------------------------------------
-
-
-If you have/bin/sh linked to busybox, you need to be aware of several
-incompatibilities between busybox's applets and the standalone
-counterparts. Since it is possible to configure busybox to not include
-these applets or to prefer the standalone counterparts, OpenRC does not
-attempt to support the busybox applets.
-
-For now, it is recommended that you disable the following busybox
-configuration settings for best results with OpenRC.
-
-CONFIG_START_STOP_DAEMON -- The start-stop-daemon applet is not compatible with
-start-stop-daemon in OpenRC.
-
-CONFIG_MOUNT -- The mount applet does not support the -O [no]_netdev options to
-skip over or include network file systems when the -a option is present.
-
-CONFIG_UMOUNT -- The umount applet does not support the -O option along with -a.
-
-CONFIG_SWAPONOFF -- The swapon applet does not support the -e option
-or recognize the nofail option in fstab.
-
-CONFIG_SETFONT -- The setfont applet does not support the -u option from kbd.
-
-CONFIG_IP -- The ip applet doesn't support the "scope" modifier for
-"ip route add" and "ip address add".
-
-There is work to get most of these supported by busybox, so this file
-will be updated as things change.
