what people think of when you tell them you have a rescue system that runs from RAM:
1. UEFI
2. bootloader
3. kernel + initrd
4. mount squashfs
5. copy to tmpfs
6. pivot root into tmpfs

what I mean:
1. UEFI
2. bootloader
3. UKI (including kernel + initrd)

you are done, the initrd is the rootfs, just have an overlaymount

@sun coreboot is just one possible implementation of step 1 (“UEFI”)
u-boot is another
