initrd: Detect filesystem type before doing fsck/mount
...
BusyBox doesn't handle the "auto" filesystem type very well: fsck will
just ignore such filesystems, and mount will only work properly if the
required kernel module is already loaded. Therefore, use blkid to
determine the filesystem type.
Also generate an /etc/fstab in the initrd rootfs on the fly. This is
useful if you're dropped into an emergency shell since it allows you
to say "fsck /dev/sda1" or "mount /dev/sda" and have the right thing
happen.

stage-1: mount /proc, /sys, /dev in the target root

The switch_root in BusyBox doesn't do this (while the one in
util-linux does). So we have to do this ourselves.

Use BusyBox in the initrd
...
Using BusyBox instead of Bash plus a bunch of other tools gives us a
much more feature-full, yet smaller initrd. In particular, BusyBox
contains networking commands such as ip and a DHCP client, useful for
NFS boots. It's also much more convenient for rescue situations
because the shell has builtin readline support and there are many more
tools (including vi).
