Do you plan to upgrade some packages

Probably not. Later versions are usually larger and
I don't want to increase the size of the base. I think
the kernel upgrade is worthwhile (particularly because
it gives users access to a better range of modules).

such as busybox? They have version 1.01 out now, which
I suspect is slightly more stable than the prerelease
version which is in BL3.

I have been very happy with the performance/stability of
the current busybox (unlike some of the earlier versions).
I see no reason to change it (particularly since I no
longer have a uClibc partition).

Among other things, they fixed bugs in sed, bunzip, cp, grep, httpd, tar and telnet, and shrank init and nc.

Is grep supposed to find things in files beginning with '.'?

Will you use the latest uclib (Aug 17 2005, 0.9.28) to compile anything for the next BL?


Cheers,
Steven
