Eric,
Thanks, the prompt is working ok now. I followed Erik Anderson's
advice and use PS1='\u@\h:\w\$ ' instead of a "fancy prompt".
The init.d starting problems were caused by some minor differences
between how ash handles scripts and how the new dash does this. I
could get it working by bypassing some scripts. I will look further
into this and let you know.
An other problem I found is that
for f in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/rp_filter; do
echo 1 > $f
done
doesn't work in dash (it's a piece from Debian
/etc/init.d/networking), this was working in all the previous
versions of ash. It complains about "directory not found" probably
due to the wildcard /*/.
Heh. I know solution for this problem.
I send my patch to Herbert Hu. He answer one day. Please wait he agreed ;-)
