It was a good idea in 1999, and it is still a good idea.

Heads is coming along in usability and has a strong focus on securing
the boot process through TPM measurement and using the flash security
features. It fits the 4.9.20 Linux kernel + initrd into 4 MB, including
all of the crypto, networking and other features. The eventual user
kernel (or Xen hypervisor and dom0 kernel) are GPG verified and invoked via
kexec for a slightly more secure, legacy free boot process.
More docs are online and pull requests are always appreciated:
