+Initially this experiment was about booting kernel directly into VM with qemu
+and making minimal initramfs
+
+At 29.11.2025 I decided to copy few binaries to initramfs to see if I can get
+a working shell. Turned out it's actually easy and adding bin/dash, 2 libs it
+dynamically links to at runtime (ld and libc) and making correct symlinks was
+enough to get me started
+
+binaries copied:
+/bin/dash
+/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
+/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6
+
+links:
+/init -> /bin/dash
+/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 -> /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
