@ -8,21 +8,24 @@ counterparts. Since it is possible to configure busybox to not include
these applets or to prefer the standalone counterparts, OpenRC does not
attempt to support the busybox applets.
All of these apply to busybox 1.20.2, which is the current version of
busybox as of this writing.
For now, it is recommended that you disable the following busybox
configuration settings for best results with OpenRC.
1. The start-stop-daemon applet is not compatible with start-stop-daemon
in OpenRC. Please make sure CONFIG_START_STOP_DAEMON is not set to y in
the configuration file you use to build busybox.
CONFIG_START_STOP_DAEMON -- The start-stop-daemon applet is not compatible with
start-stop-daemon in OpenRC.
2. The -O option for the mount applet does not support the [no]_netdev
options from util-linux for handling network file systems.
CONFIG_MOUNT -- The mount applet does not support the -O [no]_netdev options to
skip over or include network file systems when the -a option is present.
3. The umount applet does not support the -O option from util-linux.
CONFIG_UMOUNT -- The umount applet does not support the -O option along with -a.
4. The swapon applet does not support the -e option from util-linux.
CONFIG_SWAPONOFF -- The swapon applet does not support the -e option
or recognize the nofail option in fstab.
5. the setfont applet does not support the -u option from kbd.
CONFIG_SETFONT -- The setfont applet does not support the -u option from kbd.
CONFIG_IP -- The ip applet doesn't support the "scope" modifier for
"ip route add" and "ip address add".
There is work to get most of these supported by busybox, so this file
will be updated as things change.
