If you have /usr on a separate partition...

This didn't work:
for i in /etc/rcS.d/S*; do $i start; done
fsck.* and mount has dep. into /usr

Manually mounting with busybox/mount works, but
there is no fsck.ext4 in busybox.
After mountall /usr is available, so the rest did work and
so did
for i in /etc/rc2.d/S*; do $i start; done

Yes like:
git clone git://busybox.net/busybox.git
cd busybox
make defconfig
make menuconfig # I wanted static busybox binary
make
mkdir /busybox
cp busybox /busybox
cd /busybox
./busybox --install .

cttyhack and setsid is in busybox upstream.
