Created attachment 7166 [details] Do not remove S01logging It seems that when no SYSLOGD is configured in Busybox, the file $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/init.d/S01logging is removed during installation of Busybox. But in case that rsyslog also has installed a S01logging, changing the Busybox configuration will cause that the startscript of rsyslog is removed. I ve checked busybox.mk and S01logging of rsyslog - and both seem to have the problem also in the current Buildroot master. I'm working with 2017.02 and do reproduce it only there. Further more, I ve attached the patch with solves the problem for me. Normally, the packages do not remove their startscript - so I ve removed the startscript-removal as well. BR, Karl
