Customised Firmware Version 1.14 Released.

Yes, the default in the startup environment doesn't contain the busybox stuff. I often explicitly set the executable and library paths at the top of my startup scripts. That's fine as along as you indicate the dependencies. Have a look at the first few lines of S01mongoose

I've just uploaded version 1.14 of the customised firmware.

xyz321 and I have been working on improving the support for installing packages via USB for people who can't connect their boxes to the Internet. Between us we have eliminated the problem that people have experienced with needing to install packages using multiple passes and in the right order to satisfy dependencies; a tortuous and error prone process with large packages like the web interface. See the Wiki page at http://wiki.hummy.tv/wiki/Manually_loading_Features_from_USB for more details.

This new version also includes some bug fixes including properly creating a valid hosts file for devices using wireless.
