 it should... but weirdly the old root is definitely under the new
one.  i'll take a look in the 3.4.43 kernel source, see if there's
anything else.

 but also, this is /sbin/init rather than /init - which one should
really be executed (as process 1) - both exist.   i've got
rdinit=/sbin/init hard-coded into the u-boot source at the moment
(difficult to replace).
