Erik,

The format for /proc/meminfo has changed between 2.4 and 2.6, quite considerably.
In addition to the removal of the two-line summary that was present in 2.4,
MemShared was also removed. Presently (at least in busybox CVS HEAD), top fails
to parse this correctly and spews forth a:

top: failed to read 'meminfo'

message. This patch switches around some of the semantics a little to do sane
parsing for both 2.4 and 2.6. Also, in the event that the summary gets yanked
from 2.4, this patch will deal with that as well. With this patch, I'm able
to run top correctly on 2.6.0-test7 (tested on sh).

Please apply.

Hi Eric

I have written a small patch for the Busybox syslogd. With this patch
one can limit the size of the messagfile. As soon as the limit is
reached the syslogd can rotate or purge the messagefile(s) on his own.
There is no necessity to use an external rotatescript.

Even if logread does something similar, its very handy to have some
messagefile after your box crash.

I wrote this patch initial vor BB 0.6x where no cron daemon was avail.
Now I adapted it for the new Version and i hope it is still useful. At
least I still use it :-)

bye
Arnd
