bashrc question

[deadpoint]

busybox is an all-in-one executable meant which performs the function of 
other programs, like ls, cd, mv, sh, etc. it's usually only used on 
systems with little disk space, like distributions on a floppy. .bashrc 
is a user specific bash config file, where /etc/bash/bash.bashrc is the 
system default bashrc.
