Bug Description
Binary package hint: busybox
Hi,
for the boot recovery spec [1] we want to add a static shell for disaster recovery. If
e.g. libc is broken a stock ubuntu system can currently not be booted. I would like
to add busybox-static to the default install [2] and make it provide a "/bin/static-sh"
that can then be used to boot with "init=/
Please let me know what you think and if static-sh is good or too generic as a name.
Thanks,
Michael

I've opened a sysvinit task for the sulogin bit. Do you have a diff for that?
