Problem is, that a initramfs (in contrast to initrd) ignores the init
parameter (at least so it says in the kernel documentation) and when I
tried using it, it didn't work.
And how is a symlink calles /linuxrc gonna help me when there's no applet
that makes this behave like spawning a shell? Am I missing a feature here?
