I still don't quite get klibc. It sounds to me more like it is a smaller
version of libc so is handy for building small initramfs, but is not required to
build a working initramfs. I went ahead and put it in my initramfs image only
the kernel does not seem to be using the initramfs. What do you have to pass
boot= as to tell the kernel to use the initramfs? I have lilo configured for
initrd=/boot/my_initramfs and when the kernel starts up, it reports a ram disk
found at block 0, but then panics saying it can't mount the root device.
