I’ve read the documentation but it’s not entirely clear how to boot a rump

Would someone mind clarifying please? There was some reference in the
documentation to using app-tools, which I have on my system, but it didn’t give
any more detail than that.
Why would you want to do that?
I don't think we'll support/document any other method than the rumprun
tool. That approach has two advantages:
1) the basic syntax is the same for every platform
2) we can change how things work behind the scenes without breaking
things for users
You are of course completely welcome to look at what rumprun tool does
on xen, and repeat that manually. However, you are not welcome to
complain if the same will not work on a future version of the rumprun
repo. My preference would be to improve the rumprun tool so that you
don't need anything else.
