Why is busybox used instead of this? 353k compared to busybox's 2mb, and still faster than busybox.

i386? Why are they still targeting platforms that old? Why not i686?(Pentium Pro or newer)

I believe 386-class chips are still being made as embedded devices. (either standalone or integrated into other silicon) If I remember correctly, production of 80186es only stopped in 2012.
Very old and very weak silicon is common in embedded, and it lingers for a very long time.

Thanks for correcting the record.

People are too fucking stupid to make their own initramfs? Color me surprised.

you aren't smart just for doing something manually instead of having your distro do it for you.

>>57453558
No, but I'm smart for having a flexible, simple system that I can make boot from RAID in an hour instead of some black box that takes a week to figure out.

Because they'd have to rewrite them for ARM and MIPS because that's where busybox is used most
but there's already toybox which is the TRUE replacement for busybox

Nnnnnnnn.....No.
I think someone doesn't know what the meaning of "portable" means.
$RANDOMSOFTWARE written for $RANDOMCISC chip will not run on $RANDOMRISC chip or the other way around.

Yeah. But for meme minimalist musl+busybox distros, why isn't it used? Why don't you see these kinds of tools written in LLVM IR asm?
