8 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
12 init is the first program run when the system boots.
14 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_USE_INITTAB
15 bool " Support reading an inittab file"
17 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
19 Allow init to read an inittab file when the system boot.
21 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_INIT_SCTTY
22 bool " Support running commands with a controlling-tty"
24 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
26 If this option is enabled a command starting with hyphen (-)
27 is run in its own session (setsid(2)) and possibly with a
28 controlling tty (TIOCSCTTY). This is not the traditional init
29 behavour, but is often what you want in an embedded system where
30 the console is only accessed during development or for maintenance.
32 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_EXTRA_QUIET
33 bool " Be _extra_ quiet on boot"
35 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
37 Prevent init from logging some messages to the console during boot.
39 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_INIT_COREDUMPS
40 bool " Support dumping core for child processes (debugging only)"
42 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
44 If this option is enabled and the file /.init_enable_core
45 exists, then init will call setrlimit() to allow unlimited
46 core file sizes. If this option is disabled, processes
47 will not generate any core files.
51 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_FEATURE_INITRD
52 bool " Support running init from within an initrd (not initramfs)"
54 depends on BUSYBOX_CONFIG_INIT
56 Legacy support for running init under the old-style initrd. Allows
57 the name linuxrc to act as init, and it doesn't assume init is PID 1.
59 This does not apply to initramfs, which runs /init as PID 1 and
60 requires no special support.
62 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_HALT
63 bool "poweroff, halt, and reboot"
66 Stop all processes and either halt, reboot, or power off the system.
68 config BUSYBOX_CONFIG_MESG
72 Mesg controls access to your terminal by others. It is typically
73 used to allow or disallow other users to write to your terminal
77 Stop all processes and (try to) power off the system.
