there's no parallel port on this machine, but the big news is that the netcard module (tg3) loads itself and connects to the network during boot without any waitusb (and the boot goes quickly).

curaga's display gadget shows (for eg) "2.0%C 9.5%M nan%S" - does "nan" mean no swap?

I tried the timeserver with the boot codes noutc tz=Asia/Dubai - now that the netcard connects on boot, I get the timeserver but, depending on when files were created in the boot process, I get a time/date format of either:
--- Code: ---$ ls -l /tmp
drwxrwxr-x    2 root     staff           0 Dec 14 19:14 tce
--- End code ---
which is good, or:
--- Code: ---$ ls -l .jwmrc
-rw-r--r--    1 tc       staff        3763 Dec 14  2008 .jwmrc
--- End code ---
which is less good

..no big deal, one day I'll have a laptop that I don't have to share with windows and I can set the time to UTC  :)

curaga:
Could you upload your /proc/meminfo to storage? It should be 0, not nan

The new busybox is not suid, so normal user can't ping anymore ;)

curaga:
Since some network cards are slow, and we don't want to wait for 'em, I separated the dhcp portion out.  In that separate, backgrounded script, we first wait for all devices, and then do the dhcp loop. All in another thread from the main, to keep the boot fast for all.
See separated-dhcp.tgz in storage.
