default n
select FEATURE_SUID
select FEATURE_SYSLOG
help
Crond is a background daemon that parses individual crontab
files and executes commands on behalf of the users in question.
This is a port of dcron from slackware. It uses files of the
format /var/spool/cron/crontabs/<username> files, for example:
$ cat /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root
# Run daily cron jobs at 4:40 every day:
40 4 * * * /etc/cron/daily > /dev/null 2>&1
Note that Busybox binary must be setuid root for this applet to
work properly.

bool "devfsd (obsolete)"
default n
select FEATURE_SYSLOG
help
This is deprecated, and will be removed at the end of 2008.
Provides compatibility with old device names on a devfs systems.
You should set it to true if you have devfs enabled.
The following keywords in devsfd.conf are supported:
"CLEAR_CONFIG", "INCLUDE", "OPTIONAL_INCLUDE", "RESTORE",
"PERMISSIONS", "EXECUTE", "COPY", "IGNORE",
"MKOLDCOMPAT", "MKNEWCOMPAT","RMOLDCOMPAT", "RMNEWCOMPAT".
But only if they are written UPPERCASE!!!!!!!!

help
This is obsolete and will be going away at the end of 2008..
This tells busybox to look for names like /dev/loop/0 instead of
/dev/loop0. If your /dev directory has normal names instead of
devfs names, you don't want this.

default n
select FEATURE_WTMP
help

The -M flag enables a more sophisticated status line.
The -m flag enables a simpler status line with a percentage.

config FEATURE_HDPARM_GET_IDENTITY
bool "Support obtaining detailed information directly from drives"
default y
depends on HDPARM
help
Enables the -I and -i options to obtain detailed information
directly from drives about their capabilities and supported ATA
feature set. If no device name is specified, hdparm will read
identify data from stdin. Enabling this option will add about 16k...
config FEATURE_HDPARM_HDIO_SCAN_HWIF
bool "Register an IDE interface (DANGEROUS)"
default n
depends on HDPARM
help
Enables the 'hdparm -R' option to register an IDE interface.
This is dangerous stuff, so you should probably say N.
config FEATURE_HDPARM_HDIO_UNREGISTER_HWIF
bool "Un-register an IDE interface (DANGEROUS)"
default n
depends on HDPARM
help
Enables the 'hdparm -U' option to un-register an IDE interface.

default n
depends on HDPARM
help
Enables the 'hdparm -x' option to tristate device for hotswap,
and the '-b' option to get/set bus state. This is dangerous
stuff, so you should probably say N.

bool "get/set using_dma flag (DANGEROUS)"
default n
depends on HDPARM
help

config MAKEDEVS
bool "makedevs"
default n
help
'makedevs' is a utility used to create a batch of devices with
one command.
.
There are two choices for command line behaviour, the interface
as used by LEAF/Linux Router Project, or a device table file.
.
'leaf' is traditionally what busybox follows, it allows multiple
devices of a particluar type to be created per command.
e.g. /dev/hda[0-9]
Device properties are passed as command line arguments.
.
'table' reads device properties from a file or stdin, allowing
a batch of unrelated devices to be made with one command.
User/group names are allowed as an alternative to uid/gid.
choice
prompt "Choose makedevs behaviour"
depends MAKEDEVS
default FEATURE_MAKEDEVS_TABLE
config FEATURE_MAKEDEVS_LEAF

to advance or rewind a tape past a specified number of archive
files on the tape.
config NMETER
bool "nmeter"
default n
help
nmeter prints various system parameters continuously.
config RAIDAUTORUN
bool "raidautorun"
default n
help
raidautorun tells the kernel md driver to
search and start RAID arrays.
config READAHEAD
bool "readahead"
default n
help
Preload the files listed on the command line into RAM cache so that
subsequent reads on these files will not block on disk I/O.
This applet just calls the readahead(2) system call on each file.
It is mainly useful in system startup scripts to preload files
or executables before they are used. When used at the right time
(in particular when a CPU boundprocess is running) it can
significantly speed up system startup.
As readahead(2) blocks until each file has been read, it is best to
run this applet as a background job.
config RUNLEVEL
bool "runlevel"
default n
help
find the current and previous system runlevel.
This applet uses utmp but does not rely on busybox supporing
utmp on purpose. It is used by e.g. emdebian via /etc/init.d/rc.
config RX
bool "rx"
default n
help
Receive files using the Xmodem protocol.
config STRINGS
bool "strings"
default n
help
strings prints the printable character sequences for each file
specified.
config SETSID
bool "setsid"
default n
help

config TASKSET
bool "taskset"
default n
help
Retrieve or set a processes's CPU affinity.
config TIME
bool "time"
default n
help
The time command runs the specified program with the given arguments.
When the command finishes, time writes a message to standard output
giving timing statistics about this program run.
config WATCHDOG
bool "watchdog"
default n
help
The watchdog utility is used with hardware or software watchdog
device drivers. It opens the specified watchdog device special file
and periodically writes a magic character to the device. If the
watchdog applet ever fails to write the magic character within a
certain amount of time, the watchdog device assumes the system has
hung, and will cause the hardware to reboot.
