Yea, you definitely don't wanna uninstall that stuff.

If I'm not mistaken there's a specific version of coreutils for BusyBox, but the standard coreutils stat binary compiles fine and seems to work with OS2008.

I think I compiled coreutils in Scratchbox and copied the binary. I have to research and see what others are doing as far as doing it cleanly with packages and dependencies and such.

Here's the stat binary by itself if you want to test it. Just dump it in /usr/bin and see if it works.

Mine is chmod 755 and chown root.root

As you probably know, if you create a new crypt file in TC 5.x, you won't be able to open it in 4.3a (which is what EasyCrypt uses). However, any crypt files created in 4.3a are backwards compatible and TC 5.x will open them.
