Some kernel versions don't feed "init" to argv[0].  Possibly stick a printf at 
the start of main() in applets/busybox.c to tell you what argv[0] the kernel 
is feeding you?

It's a guess.  I haven't used 2.4 for a couple years now.

We have a -stable series (1.00 and 1.01) precisely to make upgrades as 
painless as possible... :)

I'm working on 1.02 now, for certain values of working...
