What's the Busybox default shell?

Question

My guess is this defaults to Bash, but would like to know for sure.

Thanks.

Solution 1

The default shell in BusyBox is ash.

Solution 2

It's not bash, is a one small file replacement for many small linux/unix utilities like sh and the files utilities

It's written with minimum size in mind and with embedded systems as target where space is a precious resource.

To be more precise, it is the dash derivative of ashas per busybox shell source code at web.archive.org/web/20210119235542/https://git.busybox.net/…
