Creates new "find_onepupdrv" and "load_onepupdrv" functions that are used for all 4 sfs files.
Since the exact filename is always known, the actual "finding" is implemented as a simple file test.
The "load_onepupdrv" function is capable of mounting a partition, so any of the 4 sfs's can be on any partition.
All sfs files copied to ram now use a single tmpfs partition.
The size of 'init' is significantly reduced.
…ion.

This means that they can work for USB drives as well as ATA drives. And they will failover to the default files if the specified file does not exist.
Changes the searching method so that only partitions that are part of a boot param are searched.

Basically merge the changes made in puppylinux-woof-CE/initrd_progs#8

It's for advanced usage, so users might not notice it anyway.

There are some other small changes and are documented in the
puppylinux-woof-CE/initrd_progs history.

This init doesn't have any particular change that requires some extra adjustments..
so it works the same with the curren setup.
