in short, I was not satisfied with the available distros as they are either roo large or are missing the features I need ootb, I also want it to boot it into ramdisk, so I made my own ISO.
This ISO contains the isolinux bootloader, the linux kernel and the initrd which contains busybox and a few other tools.
Now the issue I'm having is that busybox init is trying to pivot_root and I haven't specified root, I also don't want to pivot as all I need is already in the ramdisk, however setting root=/dev/ram0 doesn't work(invalid partition/root) and it still causes a kernel panic
Under "Operation" in this [link](https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/initrd.html) I want to get to step 5 and no further, I haven't found much yet, so I am asking here.
How would I prevent linux/busybox/init from trying to leave the ramdisk?
