[systemd-devel] how to run a shell in my systemd initramfs before pivot root

I'd like to be able to run a shell before completing the pivot (I'm running ubuntu core 20). I'm well versed in systemV init, but not systemd. How do I simulate the initramfs debugging methodology of "break=init" or "break=mount" using systemd (i.e. dropping into a shell)? marty
