Indeed, "ls -l" works. It gave me a bit the "showstopper" impression.
I think what lot of people do, once inside the qemu machine, is ls.

At this stage, without a debugger, and without symbols is difficult to
help to give more feedback. (would not make sense to have some tools
like strace, gdb in the snandard system started by
dev-environment-sh?). It seems for me that it would fit into the
philosophy of aboriginal/toybox to have basic investigation tool to be
able to report bugs, etc. Also a non-stripped version of toybox would
be probably helpfull to help to fix bugs. (or there is no one? ;) ).
Or? How would you proceed to have the fastest way to find out the
answer to "why" (floating point exceptino) in this case

To check basic floating point health I compiled and run:
 #include <stdio.h>

 int main(void)
 {
        float x = 23.2343, y = 44234.243;
        if(x < y)
        {
           printf("%f\n", x/y);
        }
        return 0;
}

Does anybody have a debugger compatible with the latest armv4tl system?
