Additionally I'd like to point out that there is a nice and
well-written O'Reilly book called "Building Embedded Linux System"
by Karim Yaghmour.  It contains a number of useful hints and techniques
for newbies, including a chapter about how to set up a root file
system for an embedded system using tools like BusyBox etc.
Some chapters may not be 100% up-to-date but still recommended 
reading.

Kind regards,
Gerald
