initramfs recovery environment



Here it is handy to have some frequently used commands pre-loaded in the editing history. To quickly retrieve the commands via key up instead of typing.



Arch Linux busybox config comes with CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING=y and CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING_HISTORY=15 but without history saving:




# CONFIG_FEATURE_EDITING_SAVEHISTORY is not set




Issue



The commands from ~/.ash_history are not being sourced as busybox editing history for interactive logins.



Regression



  1. I did check that env | grep HOME points to the correct home directory for both console and SSH interactive logins.


  2. history -r file.txt doesn't seem to load the file either.

Read history at login?



Is there a way to pre-load less then 1K of editing history with the stock busybox that comes included with Arch Linux inside the generated initramfs recovery image?
