linuxrc: do not rely on chroot evaluating PATH
When trying to install a new kernel on catbus.sparc.dev.gentoo.org, the
newly built initrd consistently claimed that it could not find init, and
dropped to the rescue shell.
However, init was there just fine in /newroot (as before).
I dug out the command that is actually run inside linuxrc,
elif ! chroot "${CHROOT}" test -x /${init#/} 1>/dev/null 2>&1
and tried to run that manually, which led to a rather strange error message
rescueshell / # chroot /newroot test -x /lib/systemd/systemd
chroot: can't execute 'test': File name too long
Some more research led me to the busybox manpage (where here chroot comes
from):
https://busybox.net/downloads/BusyBox.html#chroot
chroot
chroot NEWROOT [PROG [ARGS]]
Run PROG with root directory set to NEWROOT
Note, the third argument is *not* a command (as with usual chroot, see the
manpage from coreutils chroot) but a program!
