it is still rather gigantic compared to todays snappy rootfs (which is
supposed to shrink even futher (i.e. removing bash at some point), also
why are all the initrd handling bits in there i assume they could be
ripped out too or does anything in lxc use them ? (i'm currently doing
fine grained surgery to get them out of snappy rootfses where we do not
want them at all since you will never generate an initrd at runtime)
