New features which should be implemented in Porteus; suggestions are welcome. All questions or problems with testing releases (alpha, beta, or rc) should go in their relevant thread here, rather than the Bug Reports section.

Salutations...
Does Porteus use Busybox?
Best Regards...

Don't think so. 32-bit variant: busybox-1.23.2-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz

There is busybox in initrd.xz file inside /initrd/ another initrd file (or is it just one initrd packed with multiple packers?) in /bin/ folder of Porteus Kiosk, but this is purely accidental. Fanthom just mismanaged packages and busybox has slipped inside.
