Hi!  

> 2)  I'm not sure how to leave myself with a busybox shell using inittab  
Some time ago, I've got the same problem. My inittab looks like this:  

-------------------------------8<---------------------------------------------------------  

# Stuff on boot  
::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rc.sysinit  

# Stuff to run once  
::once:/etc/init.d/rcS  

# Start an "askfirst" shell on the console (whatever that may be)  
::askfirst:-/bin/sh  

# Stuff to do before rebooting  
::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/reboot  

-------------------------------8<---------------------------------------------------------  

My /etc/init.d/rcS, where I'm starting some essential services, looks like :  

-------------------------------8<---------------------------------------------------------  
#!/bin/sh  

echo "Mounting /proc filesystem..."  
mount -t proc none /proc  

sleep 1  

echo "Configuring lo..."  
/sbin/ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 up  

echo "Starting slattach..."  
/sbin/slattach /dev/ttySC1  

sleep 1  

echo "Configuring sl0..."  
/sbin/ifconfig sl0 192.168.200.92 pointopoint 192.168.200.91 up  

# 192.168.200.92 is my Dreamcast  
# 192.168.200.91 is my computer, both attached through   
# the coders cable  

sleep 1  

echo "Starting utelnetd..."  
/usr/sbin/utelnetd -d  

sleep 1  

echo "Everything's done..."  
-------------------------------8<---------------------------------------------------------  

Hope, I could help you,  

        Chris
