Hello,

First of all, thank you very much to the developers of Busybox for such a
great product.  :)

I am having a problem with (I think) Busybox init.  I have a bootable 
CDROM that uses Busybox 0.60.3 as init.  This worked just fine until I 
recompiled the Linux kernel (2.4.18) on the disc to support 4GB of memory 
(CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G).  When I boot with this new kernel, the boot process 
hangs right after printing the line:

Freeing unused kernel memory: 200k
