Is there any particular reason why you cannot do something like:
1) root the device
2) dump the rootfs in a subdirectory
3) chroot /sbin/init
?

Assuming you enabled sshd, you should at that point be able to ssh into 
the tablet. Or is there something in the Android kernel patches that 
stops this approach?
