           Summary: busybox ifup does not pass parameters properly?
           Product: Openembedded
           Version: OpenZaurus 3.5.4.x
          Platform: ARM
               URL: http://www.cs.unb.ca/~bremner/zaurus
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Distributions
        AssignedTo: openembedded-issues at lists.openembedded.org
        ReportedBy: bremner-keyword-oe.dfcc7b at pivot.cs.unb.ca

I tried using the example ping-places.sh from the ifupdown examples directory
(/usr/share/doc/ifupdown/examples/ping-places.sh) on my tosa with OpenZaurus
3.5.4.2 installed on it. In the example, there are lines in /etc/interfaces
like 

map 192.168.42.254/24 192.168.42.1 home

only the first parameter is passed to the script (this can be verified by
running the script from the command line on the Z, where it works fine).

A workaround is to join the parameters together with colons, and split apart
again

see
http://www.cs.unb.ca/~bremner/zaurus/etc/network/interfaces
and
http://www.cs.unb.ca/~bremner/zaurus/usr/local/bin/ping-places.sh

for an example

I guess this is most likely an upstream bug, but people keep telling me to 
report things in this bug tracker...  Should I also file a busybox bug?
