Perhaps, but this also violates the principle that the kernel should just *work* with sensible defaults. I don't use an initrd, or an initramfs, and have no intention of ever doing so.
nor do i - i was under the impression that klibc was able to work out of a bzImage too? Am i wrong?

Nope. It runs inside an initramfs, of course; that initramfs is linked into the kernel binary.

would be nice to have a single-image variant for all of this. having the separate initrd was always trouble - and it's pointless as well. (we rarely update the initrd without updating the vmlinuz as well)


We do. Am I missing something?
