init on a FADS823

init on a FADS823

[Bruno R. Barreyra]

I'm trying to get a init program to work on my FADS823.

Running bash as the init process works fine. However, if I try the
sysvinit from Montavista, it
just asks me for a runlevel and then says there are no processes left on
that runlevel. I'm
trying to compile simpleinit from util-linux, since I need a really
simple solution, but it won't
work either. It says "init: stat of path failed". Any ideas?

On a separate note, I also need to get smbmount working, but
cross-compiling the samba
package seems impossible. Has anybody done it?

If you need an "init" process and a  simple  solution  as  well,  why
don't  you use the "init" that's included with busybox? Because, when
you run "init", you will want to have some other tools  as  well,  so
busybox is probably useful in other ways, too.
