[Feature Request]: allow /bin for other distros, hardcoded /usr/bin/run-parts makes build to fail

      1. Which feature would you like to have?

Hello,

while playing with Devuan daedalus I found bash and run-parts are located in `/bin`. I know, daedalus seems to be phased out soon and excalibur has everything in place, but I checked other distros not following ubuntu way:

• Alpine: `/bin/run-parts` https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/contents?name=run-parts&repo=main&branch=edge&arch=armhf

• Arch: `/usr/bin/run-parts` https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/run-parts/

• Gentoo: as I see, they dobin into /, not into /usr: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/sys-apps/debianutils/debianutils-5.14-r1.ebuild#n36

2 of 3, as an excuse for this issue. Ah, plus 0.5 points for Devuan.

This may save time for those who want their Armpines or Armtoos. Below is my fix, I believe you can do that better:

3. Find all initramfs configuration in /etc
