LTSP-like means I've used dhcp and pxelinux to get the kernel and initrd
downloaded and running.

The initrd is built using the buildk script from the initrd-kit download.
The kernel is built as per documentation except for not being tagged for
Etherbooting.
The remote root and hence the init version are straight from the ltsp_core
rpm.

Should there be parameters to the /sbin/init ? I thought not if /etc/inittab
was in place. There are none on the distributed linuxrc

Thanks
