22:57.45waglewhat's the minimum binaries for single user mode?  i have /bin/sh in another dir, and it wont execute as init
22:58.36jerowagle: well if sh is a static executable, it's enough
22:58.43jerootherwise you need the c library
23:01.41waglegood plan to dynamically link it..  why in my day..  </foogey>
23:01.57jero:)
23:03.14wagleproblem is that i cant put stuff in /, can only put it in /opt/upgrader/
23:03.28y_morinwgale: for dynamicaly linked, you need: the binary (of course!;-)) the needed libs (eg. libc.so) and the dynamic linker ld.so.
23:04.05waglejust need to run a simple shell script to chroot the thing
23:04.09y_morinwagle: depending on what you want to do, a statically linked binary can be enough
23:04.35waglei guess i need to write a static binary to do the chroot
23:05.13y_morinwagle: wagle: sounds like it, yes. Just grab busybox, just build chroot, and you're done.
23:06.05waglebooting into a non-root isk with init= something
23:06.33wagleinit=/opt/upgrader/sbin/init-phase-1
23:07.00waglegot busybox, trying to use its chroot to get things going
23:07.30wagledoes busybox have a simple shell?
23:09.21waglesigh..  busybox itself is dynamically linked
23:09.57y_morinwagle: what busybox did you get? You can _build_ busybox as a static binary.
23:10.35waglei inherited this big buildroot thing from 2008 that-must-be-be-modernized
23:10.45waglei inherited this big buildroot thing from 2008 that-must-NOT-be-modernized
23:12.43waglei think static link busybox is the way to go..  ash is part of busybox?
23:12.52y_morinwagle: yes.
23:16.20wagledarn this monday dropdead deadline..  its making my head explode hen i see things like "configure it with a gui"
23:17.26wagle(its got to automatically build)
23:19.06wagleis there a simple way to get it to statically link, or do i dig through the config options?
23:20.00jerowagle: busybox has a single option to compile it static
23:24.20waglefound it
