[PATCH 02/50] Add a simple getarg function.
...
If we ever need to get more than one kernel command line argument, this
function will pay for itself. It relies on a feature of the way bash
handles string comparisons in [[ ]] statements -- the RHS is matched
according to globbing rules, and is not a straight string match.

Initial commit
...
First pass at a new initrd implementation. Right now, it's a very simple
/init and we use nash's switchroot command via switch_root. The idea is to
get a switchroot binary into util-linux that can be used instead
generate.sh will let you generate an initrd image. Note that the generator
is intentionally super simple right now and is an area that will need a lot
of work once we're happier with how the /init process runs
