I did that with a router project, a mile long rc.sysinit script. I found
it's harder to make changes to it. I thought dropping scriptfiles into a
directory where they get called at boot in a controlled manner would be
cleaner.
As for doing away with init, I'd love to for my bootdisks. I don't know
how to get the kernel to start a script instead of init (call the script
init?) and how to keep 2 couple of mingetty's around for terminal logins
without init.
