I was wondering if anybody had ever tried to link an embedded application
directly to the kernel. Before anybody thinks I've gone off my rocker, I
was thinking that for an embedded system this could be nice because there
would be no need for storage (disk, flash, etc) drivers or filesystems for
embedded systems that don't need storage. So you'd end up with:
bootloader--->kernel+userprocess
where a normal system goes
bootloader--->kernel--->rootfs--->userprocess(init)...
Any reasons why this couldn't be done? Assume this would be for a really
simple embedded app where everything is running as root.
