| 121 | Build a statically linked version of the following "hello world" program | ||
| 122 | with your cross compiler toolchain. | ||

| 135 | Now try to boot your device with an "init=" argument pointing to your | ||
| 136 | hello world program. Did you see the hello world message? Until you | ||
| 137 | do, don't bother messing with busybox init. | ||

| 141 | Once you've got it working statically linked, try getting it to work | ||
| 142 | dynamically linked. Then read the FAQ entry before this one. | ||
