If you use a recent 5.x or later, then the kernel is the GENERIC kernel.  If 
you use 5.4 or later then the disc1 will include the full livefs on disc1 so 
that you will have all of the base system available to you under /dist.  You 
can always create a malloc-backed memory disk using mdconfig to get extra 
writable disk space if you need it.
