However, due to the size of the ramdisk used at boot time, 256 MB of
RAM are currently necessary to boot.

That's messed up. Your subdistro runs in 37MB of RAM, but the initramfs
requires 256MB. I'd suggest adding another initramfs that assumes a
no-encryption, no-lvm ext4 root partition, and does nothing but get
that root partition mounted.

I bet you can put it on even more of a diet if you use busybox to do
most of the work.
