     My experience is the same as yours :-) I compiled kernels for 
dedicated hardwares with all drivers and filesystems statically in 
kernel. The initramfs is used to configure the network and derive from 
the IP address where to find an NFS server. In case of problem, this 
initramfs turns to a live Linux OS with an interactive session on the 
console (thanks to Busybox!).
