Hold up, is this a trick question? What if the initramfs is empty and there's no init script at all? Then what?

I'm going with /sbin/init. It's the default init process, so it makes sense it would be the first thing to run.

Hmm, I thought it was /linuxrc. Isn't that the traditional way to kick things off?

I'm pretty sure it's /init. That's the standard entry point for the initramfs, right?

I think the answer is A) /init because it is the default init program in initramfs.
