Flash kernel
installs /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/flash_kernel_set_root which
does:
# The boot loader passes a bogus root= (e.g. root=/dev/ram), so
# override the command line parameter.
install -d $DESTDIR/conf
echo "ROOT=\"$rootdev\"" >> $DESTDIR/conf/param.conf
($DESTDIR will become the initramfs)
