Add image-builder initrd, support partitions in normal initrd #189

Closed superseed closed 6 years ago

superseed commented 6 years ago

The build initrd's only purpose is to populate a volume for image creation. Its documentation is mostly a todo, but some informations can be found in the image tools repository since pull 196.

Improvements to the normal (boot) initrd have been made to support booting with partitions, and compatibility with the new images.

This seems to be working as far as my tests go, let's merge it and work on the details (spurious logs because of missing redirects, etc) later.
