272 | This option causes busybox shells to use busybox applets |
---|
273 | in preference to executables in the PATH whenever possible. For |
---|
274 | example, entering the command 'ifconfig' into the shell would cause |
---|
275 | busybox to use the ifconfig busybox applet. Specifying the fully |
---|
276 | qualified executable name, such as '/sbin/ifconfig' will still |
---|
277 | execute the /sbin/ifconfig executable on the filesystem. This option |
---|
278 | is generally used when creating a statically linked version of busybox |
---|
279 | for use as a rescue shell, in the event that you screw up your system. |
---|
280 | |
---|
281 | This is implemented by re-execing /proc/self/exe (typically) |
---|
282 | with right parameters. Some selected applets ("NOFORK" applets) |
---|
283 | can even be executed without creating new process. |
---|
284 | Instead, busybox will call <applet>_main() internally. |
---|
285 | |
---|
286 | However, this causes problems in chroot jails without mounted /proc |
---|
287 | and with ps/top (command name can be shown as 'exe' for applets |
---|
288 | started this way). |
---|
289 | # untrue? |
---|
290 | # Note that this will *also* cause applets to take precedence |
---|
291 | # over shell builtins of the same name. So turning this on will |
---|
292 | # eliminate any performance gained by turning on the builtin "echo" |
---|
293 | # and "test" commands in ash. |
---|
294 | # untrue? |
---|
295 | # Note that when using this option, the shell will attempt to directly |
---|
296 | # run '/bin/busybox'. If you do not have the busybox binary sitting in |

297 | # that exact location with that exact name, this option will not work at |

304 | One common problem reported on the mailing list is "can't access tty; |
---|
305 | job control turned off" error message which typically appears when |
---|
306 | one tries to use shell with stdin/stdout opened to /dev/console. |
---|
307 | This device is special - it cannot be a controlling tty. |
---|
308 | |
---|
309 | Proper solution is to use correct device instead of /dev/console. |
---|
310 | |
---|
311 | cttyhack provides "quick and dirty" solution to this problem. |
---|
312 | It analyzes stdin with various ioctls, trying to determine whether |
---|
313 | it is a /dev/ttyN or /dev/ttySN (virtual terminal or serial line). |
---|
314 | If it detects one, it closes stdin/out/err and reopens that device. |
---|
315 | Then it executes given program. Usage example for /etc/inittab |

316 | (for busybox init): |
