Re: "Posting this from Amfora running on a linux distro..."
I remember Barry Kauler (creator of Puppy Linux and EasyOS) had done that a number of years back. There's an option available when you compile the kernel that lets you embed the initrd right in the kernel image, and his just stayed in the initrd rather than doing the normal 'switch_root' to a new filesystem.
Still really cool though. Did you create this yourself, or is it someone else's monster?

Posting this from Amfora running on a linux distro contained entirely within the kernel image, bit hacky but it works
