The SELF tarball on our FTP server is the "old" versio, which assumes
that you buile everything from  scratch,  i.  e.  from  the  pristine
source tarballs.

With the ELDK installed, all these tools (in one version or  another)
are  ready  available,  so  we  can  safe  the  effort of recompiling
everything.

Busybox is used to build the SELF RPM, but SELF is complete in itself.

No. These RPMs contain the binary RPMs.

But these _are_ the SELF images.

There is nothing wrong. Either you can use the  ramdisk  images  that
come  with  the distribution, or you can build your own by rebuilding
the  SELF  RPM.  See  the  instructions  for  recompilation  of  ELDK
packages.  You  can  check  out  the  build  environment from our CVS
server.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
