I don't think it loads them into it... it provides them... for example running busybox vi will load busybox's version of vi. Doesn't mean this isn't a good thing... symlinking vi to busybox and then running that vi is the same as typing busybox vi. -- Caleb Cushing http://xenoterracide.blogspot.com
