<div dir="ltr">downloading the busybox allows you to just deal with it same as the kernel you download from <a href="http://kernel.org">kernel.org</a> using the menuconfig<div>so it consists of a linux kernel (memory managament ,real time cpu schedualing , storage management and a little standard hardware drivers ) used to be tiny to use in embedded systems and also you can use it to buld an embedded system from scratch if you wanted (eg. honung ) so still you can make a distro based on the busybox (thats what i know you may correct me if I'm worng :) ) and sorry for the wrong information :)</div>
