Can you recompile your kernel? I believe that tmpfs support is a kernel
config option. I believe it is File systems -> Pseudo filesystems ->
Virtual memory file system support (former shm fs)

Do you know whether udev is used with traditional init? I am curious
because I assume that if udev requires tmpfs under initng it also
requires tmpfs under traditional init...

I am no udev guru, but as I understand udev manages your /dev and
without udev (or similar technology) you will have to statically
maintain /dev. So probably you don't want to disable udev.
