Hello

I am building a minimal system to run some services and my libsdl based
application.
Everything must fit into 16MB of flash memory.

I have used xmerge helper script to emerge busybox, baselayout, libsdl,
sdl-image, dropbear ...

I am trying to set up networking by /etc/init.d/net.eth0 as on normal gentoo,
but the initscripts seems to does nothing, even not any error message
appears.
I think that it is because /sbin/runscript does nothing, but i do not
understand it too much.

Busybox applets, dropbear server and my SDL application works good.

My system uses ARM9 cpu.

What need I to do?
What should i write to You to give You a propper information about the
problem?

Thank you

baselayout-1 /sbin/runscript depends on bash.

If I was limited to 16M FS. I would dump baselayout all together and use
the classic busybox rcS method myself.

I have a set of init.d script + a gentoo compatible runscript for my
alpine linux distro. The alpine-baselayout will uses busybox init to
fire up gentoo style init.d scripts.

http://dev.alpinelinux.org/cgit/alpine-baselayout/?h=v1.x

It uses /etc/network/interfaces and busybox ifup/ifdown though.


PS. alpine will probably switch to openrc in near future so use the v1.x
branch if you want keep it small.

-nc

if you do not have net-tool merged to your system try to link busybox to /sbin/ifconfig
