Yes -- this is the case I'm seeing now. I don't see
/lib/modules/misc on the root disk, but it should be.
This should in fact work. Something is broken. I'm researching

They need CONFIG_FILTER.

Change the kernels so they all have CONFIG_FILTER and at least a
module for CONFIG_PACKET, and fix rootdisk.sh.
