Good - that's a major step forward.

Well, it's probably worth starting the agent with the flags
'-Ducd-snmp/disk' and see what gets logged. Also, you say it fails
when you have "disk" entries in the config file. What exactly do you
mean by this? Is the agent process running (but not responsive), or
is it not running at all? Does it log anything during startup?

I'd suggest that might be easier to do when we know *why* things are
breaking. Otherwise it's a matter of somebody with a suitable
environment testing each config directive in turn. We'd need a
volunteer with a busybox setup - any suggestions? :-)
