Yes it does, but including that in busybox would reduce size and
remove another binary in favour of busybox.

I have two reasons for using that list:
1. Its the only list that fits.
2. The demofs is too closely related to the boot-disk package.
The demofs will eigther depend on the boot-disk package or be
integrated into the boot-disk package. If its not integrated I don´t
know exactly how I should get the relevant stuff off the boot-disk
package (resc1440.bin, base.tgz, drv1440.bin, busybox).
