I had tried with pivot_root:
 I entered 
/bin/sh  in /etc/rcS
and after mounting /proc tried to do pivot_root
 it gives me 
pivot_root:pivot_root: Device or resource busy.
 any clue why it is like this?

 Regarding initramfs.. i am not aware of it by too much.. i will try to find out more about it.. Is it more easier than ramdisk image?

 Your suggestions are greatly appreciated
 Thanks in advance 
Rupesh
