Make the image actually bootable

[teeler]

make_fs.sh only creates a filesystem image, but does not produce a bootable image (via lilo, grub, or direct kernel placement).

I'm happy to contribute this - any preference for method?

it actually booted,

cp real_linux.config linux.config
cp -R out/* /mnt/
grub-mkconfig -o grub.cfg

It still needs a bootloader - I was building the image and transplanting it
over to different, blank machine.

In any case I have it working, I'll close the bug unless those
modifications are desirable.

I've got something minimal running with extlinux. I had to modify a few
details of make_fs.sh, but its pretty minimal. I'm targeting virtualbox at
the moment and its booting there so I'm happy. ;)

I'll put up fork later and send a pull request.
