While I was out walking my dog I sort of remembered that there are just a few apps I had to build static, or at least that I build static. One, I think was grub. The first and only time I did it I had to do it 3 or 4 times before I got everything I needed working correctly. This page which is like the first one Google comes up with talks about that stuff, although you have to sort of dig it out and read between the lines. http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Initramfs And, I think with the ldd command as long as you include the libraries ldd points at in your equivalent /lib directory within the initramfs then that works for most apps and keeps the initramfs smaller.
