The boot that this was taken from was using an Apple Desktop Bus Mouse

Being a newbie to all this, I (unfortunately) do not know how to install
*only* /sbin/init, however I would be more than happy to try this if you
(or anyone) would like to tell me how.  Is it indeed something as easy
as uncompressing the archive and then using the minishell to cd into the
directory and using cpin to copy the single file?  Or is it more
difficult than this?
