YES:
* Specifying rootfs location filesystem type.
* Configuration examples, HOWTOs.
* DNS configuration.
* {pre,post}_hooks for some phases.
* Unattended mode, where reboot loop is actually the desired behavior.
* Might require /proc to be mounted somehow, as the easiest way to do this
might be "echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger"
MAYBE:
* Change the rootfs_part= argument handling, so that it would accept arbitrary
transformations; will lead to awesome stuff like transforming next parts
using scripts downloaded in previous parts.
* Compression algorithm autodetection based on filename OR bsdtar automagic.
* Fancier OK/FAIL - at the end of the line, or somewhere.
* A proper vim modeline for the initramfs/init script.
* https. But wget in busybox doesn't and won't support it.
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox-cvs/2005-April/019949.html
* A proper buildsystem.
* Making pv optional.
* Optional bsdtar.
* Optional curl, for https and other uri types.
* Fallback sshd.
* Kernel parameter for accepted-by-default ssh keys
* Download a file containing a list of tarballs to download.
DONE:
* Downloading rootfs over http.
* Other compression algorithms.
* Rootfs "overlays"/"parts".
* Start different init than /sbin/init.
* Added some examples.
* rootfs_part= argument handling now accepts arbitrary ammount of predefined
transformations.
* Configure bridges
