Sounds interesting to me (coming from a guy who used to code directly to
the hardware of the Amiga, of course :-), but I don't know if it's realy
feasible to do it that way...
How about just hacking a custom init, which does the things you mentioned, and
put that on a ramdisk/romfs image or something? It might be possible to hack
the imagi into the kernel image if desired, but I don't really see the point,
as you can load a kernel + ramdisk image directly from the boot loader, and
pass the ramdisk to the kernel when starting it. (No disk file systems required,
that is.) Of course, you can move any amount of setup/application code into one
or more modules that are inserted by the init replacement.
