I looked at image-live class but it's only image class without any dependencies. As far as I understand if for example we building busybox than we have to build kernel first. Is there any chance to accomplish this task if we'll have 2 kernel recipes - one for bootstrap (for compilation of initramfs) and the second with embedded initramfs?
