Don't forget about EXEC_SCRIPT, and probably tmpfs might be needed somewhere too, ffs, nfs... IIRC, miniroo.kmod has no module embedded; you will need a couple extra modules to make it boot up to a "functional" point, especially when the station has nothing installed on it, or when modules are not accessible in their default path.
