That is hard to be certain about without estimating some idea of the saved space, both in flash and in RAM. Ash is cut-down alright but the most-used features like if [ ] , while, for and the usual compare actions are in there and so on. Most intricate script activity is done by calling echo/cat/cut/grep/etc inside `` it seems It seems to me the biggest saving can be had with replacing many currently discrete packages with busybox. The busybox versions of everything are cut down... but... is that actually more of a bug than it is a feature is the question. Here is the canonical list of apps that can be generated inside the busybox binary, with implemented options: http://busybox.net/downloads/BusyBox.html As you scroll down the list of apps, think of all the packages that go out the window... Busybox has a Linux kernel-style make menuconfig where you can do finegrained enable and disable and config of the packages in it. If one particular thing is too weak, you can turn it off in Busybox and make it in its own package. Otherwise Busybox makes symlinks to itself in /bin/busybox for all the commands that it is compiled to support. -Andy
