help
Integrate the root filesystem generated by Buildroot as an
initramfs inside the kernel image. This integration will
take place automatically.
The rootfs.initramfs file generated in the images/ directory
is only a text file describing the contents of the initramfs
in a format understood by the CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE kernel
configuration option.
Note that enabling initramfs together with other filesystem
formats doesn't make sense: you would end up having two
identical root filesystems, one embedded inside the kernel
image, and one separatly.
