This will come in very handy, since many providers don't natively provide NetBSD.
I've played similar tricks mounting a ramdisk, copying things in to it, starting daemons from it, then force-remounting rootfs read-only, then doing things you can't normally do. This takes things quite a bit further, and I like it.
I've never quite understood the details of Linux boot methods. This article is wonderful because it doesn't just say what to do, but explains what's going on, and in detail. Can't wait to try!
