Hello,

MSP430 is a micro controller supplied by Texas Instruments.
If you *CAN* port Linux to it, we can very well use Busy Box.
*BUT*..While porting Linux to a micro controller, we need to see memory
constraints, multi-threads etc etc..

It is up to you how you handle the controller/processor with your limitation
;)

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Best Regards,
Praveen
