You will next learn about the requirements for cross-compiling the Busy Box package. Then we look at Busy Box operational issues, including how it is used in an embedded system. Next you will examine the Busy Box initialization sequence, and how this departs from more traditional Linux systems. You will also study a sample initialization script. After reading the steps for installing Busy Box on a target system, you will learn about some of the Busy Box commands and their limitations.
