I added this task to SF.
When I have vacation, I should have enough time to do some work.
A begining of documentation for the build system you can find in the checked out scripts under the directoy build/docs.
I try to do a quick answer right now.

The only interesting part is the initrd stuff, with my last changes we use the standard System V Init process.

build/config/etc/initrd
build/config/etc/init.d
Additional scripts for packages are located under
build/scripts/scripts

Full Bash shell, all Busybox applets.
Limited modules ( only scsi and block drivers)

After the last change, the boot process is much ore cleaned up.
But it still need some more cleaning for the initrd part.
