busybox ________________________________________________________________________________ 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.

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. +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | | | $ kiss b man-pages | | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ --[003] Services --------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
