All right.
I see that initramfs is attached to the kernel itself.

So it leaves me only a question: will I fit all tools into 300 kB (considering I'll use uClibc and busybox)?


You don't need to use busybox and have a bunch of tools.

The klibc distribution comes with "kinit", which does the equivalent to the kernel root-mounting code; it's in the tens of kilobytes, at least on x86. If you're using ARM, you can compile it as Thumb.
