Well, I hope that this might save some precious space on the disk: could you enable all the module-stuff (insmod, modprobe, ...)? On Alpha the real binaries eat about 130k and the busybox-binary 282k. If there are no problems, "route" may also be activated, even if it is only 87k in size, but remember that we need ~200k extra-space (compressed!) on the rootdisk to get everything squeezed on a 1.4M-floppy. How is the shell-part of busybox? Is it useable and compatible enough to run all the shellscripts needed for the boot-process? I just ask because ash has annother 150k :) Well, I don't know if putting all of this in busybox will actually save that much space but IMHO it is worth looking into it (if it works).
