With all the due respect, anyone can put a few lines in a shell script
or in a C code to create two devices and call rc. But we should be
honest and tell Bartolo, and anybody else willing to go down this
path, that this is not exactly "making a custom init", though, since
what is normally intended as "init" needs to be a tad more complicated
than that, if the intention is to make it useful outside a sandbox.
