Sorry. This issue was solved. It was a misconfiguration on a nfs-root installation. > does not run sysinit script (don't know why). Also I would like the > behaviour of switchroot I was using before.

But the new initrd does not contain switchroot binary and I don't > know what version of libc is on the initrd. run-init is satisfactory for me now.
