"daemon mode" is an invented term. I don't have documentation, but I was 
just suggesting that without process control something might be going amiss.

On the other hand, I gave the example that I have absolutely no trouble 
running 0.1.6 from initrd.

Initramfs is fairly easy to work with. I suggest just putting gdb on it 
and seeing what happens.
