Package: busybox-cvs-net-udeb
Version: 0.60.99.cvs20030819-2 (not installed)
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
The floppy image uses the busybox-cvs-net-udeb. That image fails to
boot, an error occurs while executing the last line of linuxrc (the
chroot command).
Unfortunatly there is not much debugging output, but it seems that
some programs are needed which are not included in the net-udeb. As
a workaround i included the normal busybox-cvs-udeb in the floppy
image which works nicely now.
