Sebastian,

I'm trying to be as nice and patient as I can with your errors.  You get 
a D+ for following instructions though.

coreutils is not selected by default.  It is not needed for basic 
functionality on an astlinux box.  Most of these functions are already 
provided by busybox.

Please refer back to previous note messages which provide complete 
instructions to have a working box.  Could coreutils be fixed to work?  
Probably.  Is it even on our list?  No.  The goal of this project isn't 
to add everything that you might find on a full blown Linux box.  It's 
to provide the needed functionality in the smallest footprint necessary 
to provide that functionality.
