BusyBox is a software suite that provides several Unix utilities in a single
|
|
executable file. It runs in a variety of POSIX environments such as Linux,
|
|
Android, and FreeBSD, although many of the tools it provides are designed to
|
|
work with interfaces provided by the Linux kernel. It was specifically created
|
|
for embedded operating systems with very limited resources. The authors dubbed
|
|
it "The Swiss Army knife of Embedded Linux", as the single executable replaces
|
|
basic functions of more than 300 common commands. [0]

[002] Usage
|
|
________________________________________________________________________________
|
|
|
|
KISS' default busybox configuration comes with upwards of 300 utilities (all
|
|
contained in less than a single megabyte). There are many more utilities and
|
|
options which are also currently disabled.
|
|
|
|
Busybox does not provide manual pages for each of its commands. Instead it only
|
|
provides help output (--help). The POSIX manual pages can be installed to fill
|
|
in some of these documentation holes.

|
|
|
|
The busybox package provides various daemons and also accompanying service
|
|
files for the default service manager. The following daemons have services
|
|
provided by the distribution.
|
|
|
|
* acpid - Simple ACPI events listener
|
|
* crond - Daemon to execute scheduled commands.
|
|
* mdev - A device manager.
|
|
* ntpd - Network Time Protocol Daemon.
|
|
* syslogd - System logging daemon.
|
|
|
|
Refer to the distribution's service management documentation. [1] If busybox
|
|
provides a daemon but no service file is provided, open an issue at
|
|
$/kisslinux/repo and a service will be added.
