The busybox applets seem to be fine but I wonder about the following:
depmod and insmod are taken from the modutils (rmmod and modprobe
being links to insmod) whereas lsmod from busybox is used. Is there a
reason for this? I already checked the BTS for bugs in busybox but
there weren't any concerning the module-stuff. As the modutils-bins
eat about 200k on Alpha (uncompressed) and busybox will grow a bit
when compiling in the mod-stuff this won't save the Alpha-bootdisks
but it might be a way. Comments?
