6# Note, BusyBox init doesn't support runlevels. The runlevels field is
7# completely ignored by BusyBox init. If you want runlevels, use sysvinit.
8#
9#
10# Format for each entry: <id>:<runlevels>:<action>:<process>
11#
12# <id>: WARNING: This field has a non-traditional meaning for BusyBox init!
13#
14# The id field is used by BusyBox init to specify the controlling tty for
15# the specified process to run on. The contents of this field are
16# appended to "/dev/" and used as-is. There is no need for this field to
17# be unique, although if it isn't you may have strange results. If this
18# field is left blank, then the init's stdin/out will be used.
19#
20# <runlevels>: The runlevels field is completely ignored.
21#
22# <action>: Valid actions include: sysinit, respawn, askfirst, wait, once,
23# restart, ctrlaltdel, and shutdown.
24#
25# Note: askfirst acts just like respawn, but before running the specified
26# process it displays the line "Please press Enter to activate this
27# console." and then waits for the user to press enter before starting
28# the specified process.
29#
30# Note: unrecognized actions (like initdefault) will cause init to emit
31# an error message, and then go along with its business.
32#
33# <process>: Specifies the process to be executed and it's command line.
34#
35# Note: BusyBox init works just fine without an inittab. If no inittab is
36# found, it has the following default behavior:
37# ::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS
38# ::askfirst:/bin/sh
39# ::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/reboot
40# ::shutdown:/sbin/swapoff -a
41# ::shutdown:/bin/umount -a -r
42# ::restart:/sbin/init
43# tty2::askfirst:/bin/sh
44# tty3::askfirst:/bin/sh
45# tty4::askfirst:/bin/sh
46#
47# Boot-time system configuration/initialization script.
48# This is run first except when booting in single-user mode.
49#
50::sysinit:/etc/init.d/rcS
51
52# /bin/sh invocations on selected ttys
53#
54# Note below that we prefix the shell commands with a "-" to indicate to the
55# shell that it is supposed to be a login shell. Normally this is handled by
56# login, but since we are bypassing login in this case, BusyBox lets you do
57# this yourself...
58#
59# Start an "askfirst" shell on the console (whatever that may be)
60::askfirst:-/bin/sh
61# Start an "askfirst" shell on /dev/tty2-4
62tty2::askfirst:-/bin/sh
63tty3::askfirst:-/bin/sh
64tty4::askfirst:-/bin/sh
65
66# /sbin/getty invocations for selected ttys
67tty4::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5
68tty5::respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6

70# Example of how to put a getty on a serial line (for a terminal)
71#::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 9600 vt100

80# Stuff to do before rebooting
81::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/reboot
82::shutdown:/bin/umount -a -r
