[klibc] initramfs howto

[Andreas Jellinghaus]

"When an intramfs archive is found during boot, the kernel will try to start
/init. This is the only file the initramfs actually _needs_. Everything else
is optional, depending on what you want the initramfs to do."

I believe that is wrong: the kernel will try to open /dev/console first
and not even run init, if that fails. so two files are needed:
/dev/console and /init.

Regards, Andreas
