help
All files and filesystems in Unix are arranged into one big directory
tree. The 'mount' utility is used to graft a filesystem onto a
particular part of the tree. A filesystem can either live on a block
device, or it can be accessible over the network, as is the case with
NFS filesystems. Most people using BusyBox will also want to enable
the 'mount' utility.

help
The switch_root utility is used from initramfs to select a new
root device. Under initramfs, you have to use this instead of
pivot_root. (Stop reading here if you don't care why.)
Booting with initramfs extracts a gzipped cpio archive into rootfs
(which is a variant of ramfs/tmpfs). Because rootfs can't be moved
or unmounted*, pivot_root will not work from initramfs. Instead,
switch_root deletes everything out of rootfs (including itself),
does a mount --move that overmounts rootfs with the new root, and
then execs the specified init program.
* Because the Linux kernel uses rootfs internally as the starting
and ending point for searching through the kernel's doubly linked
list of active mount points. That's why.
