03d8091859 Patch from Woody Suwalski:
Erik, I think we have met online some time ago when I was in Corel/Rebel
    Netwinder project....

Anyway, I would like to use BB on 2.6.0 initrd. 1.00-pre4 works OK, if
insmod is actually presented with a full path to the module. Otherwise -
problems (not to mention conflicts when 2.4 modutil is enabled)

Here are some patches for insmod and modprobe which try to walk around
the default ".o" module format for 2.2/2.4 modules (you have probably
noticed it is now .ko in 2.6 ;-)) Trying to steal as little space as
possible if 2.6 not enabled...

The modprobe is still not perfect on 2.6 - seems to be jamming on some
dependencies, but works with some (to be debugged). Anyway after the
patches it at least tries to work....

Will there be a 1.00-pre5 coming any time soon?

Thanks, Woody

d378c3149c Applied vodz' patches #49 and #50 (with a small correction in runshell.c)
#49: I found one memory overflow and memory leak in "ln" applet.
Last patch reduced also 54 bytes. ;)

#50: I found bug in loginutils/Makefile.in.
New patch have also new function to libbb and
aplied this to applets and other cosmetic changes.

b493dec91e David Frascone <dave@frascone.com> noticed two problems. First, modprobe was
trying to call 'insmod -q', which wasn't supported.  Secondly, when modprobe
was fed blank lines from modules.dep, we ended up calling xstrndup(ptr, -1),
which with suitably bad results.  David provided a patch to catch the blank
lines, and I have added insmod -q support.  So modprobe should work again.

044228d5ec This is vodz' latest patch. Sorry it took so long...
1) ping cleanup (compile fix from this patch already applied).
    2) traceroute call not spare ntohl() now (and reduce size);
    3) Fix for functions not declared static in insmod, ash, vi and mount.
    4) a more simple API cmdedit :))
    5) adds "stopped jobs" warning to ash on Ctrl-D and fixes "ignoreeof" option
    6) reduce exporting library function index->strchr (traceroute), bzero->memset (syslogd)

66ca9480c8 Fix a nasty hard to spot bug found by Ralph Siemsen <ralphs@netwinder.org>.
This would cause it to obliterates the end of the strtab section, so
symbol lookups would fail and then it would crash.  Ugh.  This should
fix things for people having trouble with insmod.

8ae319a322 This patch from Bernhard Kuhn <kuhn@lpr.e-technik.tu-muenchen.de> is based on
the work of Jinux Kim on his "babobox" (derived from busybox-0.42), and enables
kernel module loading and unloading for uClinux/m68k.

14d354312a Per suggestion from Vladimir, eliminate check_wildcard_match(), which
was only being used by insmod these days.

Also, I spent a minute adjusting insmod so that it first searches
/lib/modules/`uname -r` and then (if that fails) searches /lib/modules,
which makes bb insmod behave much more like the real insmod, and should
avoid nasty surprises (such as the recent "Modutils vs. Busybox..."
thread).
