Subject: [ptxdist] building a separate initramfs

Hi,
I'm having trouble figuring out how to build an initramfs from a
second userspace set of packages.
Basically I want to run an encrypted and verified rootfs. I have a
solution for another board which uses an initramfs that sets up the
keys/root hashes and does a pivot_root. But in order to get this into
ptxdist I had to precompile all the binaries for the ramdisk and make
a custom rule to build it. I was hoping to find how others do this or
get some pointers before I go and replicate that again.
Or perhaps ptxdist has another solution already built for encrypting a
root and maintaining trust?
Best,
Sandy Patterson
