Shellless initd #48

Closed ericcurtin closed 11 months ago

ericcurtin commented 11 months ago

By nulling out bash, we can get a shellless initrd, this gets us down to 12M initrd size in Fedora.

Once you mount storage and initoverlayfs you have a shell again.

Kindof try and think of initrd as extended kernelspace with some userspace capabilities.
