Hi, Here's a try at writing an initramfs HOWTO. This is basically a write-up of a number of interesting emails I collected over time. It could probably use an editor, more fact-checking and a bunch of other good things, but it should be better than nothing ;-) Daniel -------------- next part -------------- INITRAMFS HOWTO 0) What are klibc and initramfs? Initramfs is a ramfs into which

Hi I had some doubts regarding what all the init application should do: >> so, that should that application do? >> - mount /dev/hda1 /new-root >> - cd /new-root >> - run-init 1. Of what I understand, before exitting, init should mount the realroot and execute the init process. Is realroot the '/' or the empty directory created (in the cpio archive) ?

...an mbr is supposed to do, and is a potential security hole, if you don't want to user to be able to choose which partition to boot from. so it doesn't help me at all. Thanks for your help.

...ram and a 80MB compressed initrd. I removed some packages and now it fits and the kernel no longer segfaults. I know this is maybe not the intendet audience for initramfs, but otherwise it works fine.

Hi I am looking at inserting functions in the early user space and want to use initramfs for this. I understand this can be achieved using 'initrd' or by making changes in the 'usr/gen_init_cpio.c' file. Can someone kindly give me pointers as to how to go about this. I am looking at the 2.6.x kernel. Thanks Rachita.

Hi 1. Is it possible to load an initrd from initramfs ? How would you do this if the initramfs is being loaded dynamically in the kernel (ie having the initramfs as initrd ) Because in this case, you will say root = /dev/initrd and specify 'initrd' as your 'initramfs source file' How will you specify the second initrd source? Thanks Rachita.

till last week everything was fine, our cds with isolinux and created with mklinux worked fine. but suddenly our build system fails, the cds don't boot anymore, or more precisely: they do boot in vmware and on several new machines we have, but on lots of other, older machines they suddenly stopped working. we didn't change our scripts, and syslinux and mkisofs is still the same version
