      [PATCH] search for /init for initramfs boots · 8b770c1d
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de>
      
      initramfs can not be used in current 2.6 kernels, the files will never be
      executed because prepare_namespace doesn't care about them.  The only way to
      workaround that limitation is a root=0:0 cmdline option to force rootfs as
      root filesystem.  This will break further booting because rootfs is not the
      final root filesystem.
      
      This patch checks for the presence of /init which comes from the cpio archive
      (and thats the only way to store files into the rootfs).  This binary/script
      has to do all the work of prepare_namespace().
