The last prerelease (pre1) was given quite a lot of + testing (thanks everyone!) which has helped turn up a number of + bugs, and these problems have now been fixed. + + <p> + + Highlights of -pre2 include updating the 'ash' shell to sync up + with the Debian 'dash' shell, a new 'hdparm' applet was added, + init again supports pivot_root, The 'reboot' 'halt' and + 'poweroff' applets can now be used without using busybox init. + an ifconfig buffer overflow was fixed, losetup now allows + read-write loop devices, uClinux daemon support was added, the + 'watchdog', 'fdisk', and 'kill' applets were rewritten, there were + tons of doc updates, and there were many other bugs fixed. + <p> + + If you have submitted a patch and it is not included in this + release and Erik has not emailed you explaining why your patch + was rejected, it is safe to say that he has lost your patch. + That happens sometimes. Please re-submit your patch to the + BusyBox mailing list. + <p> + + The point of the "-preX" versions is to get a larger group of + people and vendors testing, so any problems that turn up can be + fixed prior to the final 1.0.0 release. The main feature that + is still still on the TODO list before the final BusyBox 1.0.0 + release is adding module support for the new 2.6.x kernels. If + necessary, a -pre3 BusyBox release will happen on August 6th. + Hopefully (i.e. unless some horrible catastrophic problem + turns up) the final BusyBox 1.0.0 release will be ready by + then... + <p> + + The <a href="downloads/Changelog">changelog</a> has all + the details. As usual you can <a href="downloads">download busybox here</a>. + + <p>Have Fun! + <p> + + + <p> <li><b>15 July 2003 -- BusyBox 1.0.0-pre1 released</b><p> |
