Frank, All,
On 2019-06-12 19:18 +0300, Fragkiskos Sigalas spake thusly:
> By default docker uses pivot_root which is not available in initramfs.
pivot_root is provided by either util-linux or busybox; it has (AFAICT)
no relation to whether running from an initramfs or any other filesystem).
Our default configuration for busybox eeven enables pivot_root.
So, it looks like your could very well add pivot_root to your initramfs,
in fact.
