On further inspection...
When I build my image, it creates a kernel with initramfs in the deploy
directory:
zImage-initramfs-3.14.39-r22b+gitrAUTOINC+ba552b4bc7-machine-20150428061518.bin
However, the rootfs image includes the kernel _without_ the initramfs in its
/boot directory.
I'll investigate to see why.
