Note: "hwaddress" can't be used with the busybox ip applet (this
function isn't implemented in bb ip yet), but it can be of use with
an external "full blown" ip package.

The patch also removes "label" from the loopback configuration,
labels (subinterfaces) aren't used with loopback interfaces.

It further solves a problem in the bootp method, "ifconfig down

possible to use ip with bootp.

I found the problem, I said that no user process use old root when run

I'm wrong, actually there is a '3' fd open the file

'2', the second(stderr) return '3'.

Patch from  Andrew Flegg:

    Here's a pretty crude patch to reload /etc/inittab when init receives a
    SIGHUP. The mailing list archives weren't entirely clear on whether or
    not it should already happen, but didn't appear to be.

    The patch:
       * Adds a new function, reload_signal() which just calls
 parse_inittab() and run_actions(RESPAWN)

       * Before entering the while (1) loop set up SIGHUP to call
 reload_signal()

       * Modify new_init_action to skip the action if the same command
 already exists on the same terminal

    This last bit means that changing already running entries is a bit
    hairy as you can end up with, for example, two shells running on the
    same virtual console. However, for solely adding/removing entries this patch
    seems to work quite well.
