Subject: init/main.c: add warning when file specified in rdinit is inaccessible
Date: Mon, 7 Jul 2025 09:14:11 +0000
Avoid silently ignoring the initramfs when the file specified in rdinit is
not usable. This prints an error that clearly explains the issue (file
was not found, vs initramfs was not found).
