Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.38
Severity: normal

Having cpio break sym-links is undesirable.  For the case of shared objects
it's probably best to use "cp -L" to break the links while copying.

Currently the initrd is generated with both /bin/busybox and /bin/sh having
the same file contents.

Also the busybox program is not used adequately.  /bin contains discrete
programs for cat, chroot, dd, false, gzip, insmod, ln, ps, mkdir, mkfifo,
mount, printf, sleep, true, umount, and uname, they could all be replaced by
sym-links to busybox to save some disk space.  Also some of the other programs
could be built in to busybox to save space (pivot_root is one example).

Making these changes should save signinificantly on the amount of disk space
and RAM used for booting.
