Hi Simon,

This is the perfect opportunity to explore this more. Karl is one of
the tiny minority of people to have successfully booted using the
Busybox Init.

Hi Karl,

How did you like the Busybox Init? Do you still use Busybox
Init, or do you use a different init system for your day to day
computing? I think you once made documentation for how you installed
Busybox Init. If so, could you please post the URL to your
documentation?
