OK CC to buildroot , off-topic but why not ?, someone could help.

but where is described what cgales made for 1.15 ? is what is write on 
http://minimodding.com/CustomFirmware ? 

But anyway leaves to same question, I have a mountpoint with busybox
1.1.3 and want upgrade busybox to 1.17 without change init scripts and
keep box working, after reboot.

Just overwrite busybox1.17 files and just keep what is in /etc ? 
in CustomFirmware page mention a yaffs2_2 stuff example which is should
be saved ? 
dvdplayer  group  hdd  hdd.old  ld.so.conf  magic  passwd  profile  rcS


yeah , if I need to tweak BusyBox with that patch, that is easy (I think).
