Nope. It runs inside an initramfs, of course; that initramfs is

would be nice to have a single-image variant for all of this. having
the separate initrd was always trouble - and it's pointless as well.
(we rarely update the initrd without updating the vmlinuz as well)
We do. Am I missing something?
do we have a single-image way of getting both the kernel image and the
initram set up at once? What i know of is a two-image approach: vmlinuz
and initrd.
Yes, we do. The initramfs can be linked into the kernel image. The
unified klibc build tree does that by default.
