Replace Busybox with Bash?
Has anyone tried to replace the default busybox included on the rootfs partition with Bash and the GNU coreutils?

I suspect that the only thing necessary to do this would be to grab an armhf version of these tools, delete busybox and replace all the symlinks to busybox with the GNU binaries. Would nickel work after doing this? Since I have bricked the Kobo something like 20 times, it would be useful to know if this will be the 21st
