Providing this means we no longer need blkid for FS detection, as mount will do this for us. Adds a slight bloat to the image, in exchange for a huge convenience. Messaging is changed to assume that /bin/mount will provide useful feedback for us on failure. Once we start going down this road (cp, mount, ...), wouldn't it be better to simply drop busybox?
Hmm... we're probably close to that point. In terms of size for the tradeoff, we'd need (at a minimum) the following binaries to replace busybox: KB /bin/bash 733896
Someone will throw tomatoes at me for using Bash, but Dash sucks, and it makes a truly awful interactive shell.
Note that, if you want interactive ash shell, just open another vt (execute openvt then switch to it ALT+F2), to use a normal tty console instead of /dev/console. -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1
