We're using an embedded MIPS platform with busybox. We build the rootfs image (busybox build) and point to its location in the kernel menu config. Though I beleive that menu config is coming due to our vendor patched kernel. I'm not sure if this option is available in vanilla kernels. Doing this creates a cpio archive of whatever root dir we point to in the kernel config...which is then added to the kernel as a ramfs image. > > This question concerns also all the necessary user applications like "init" > and "sh". If you have a busybox based system, then init is essentially the busybox shell.
