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 Peter & others. Here are three patches that does the following: #1 - Update kbuild part of klibc so make clean works Adds gzip including a sample kbuild file #2 - Factor out definition of usr/ to two variables #3 - Move kbuild files to reflect location in the kernel As requested in earlier mail I need a bit of guidiance of what you expect from the kernel integrated parts of klibc.

...as it fixes a real (but rare I hope) bug in vanilla kernel it will be added to my pending 2.6.17 kbuild queue. I've done quite some changes to the gen_initramfs script and being shell programming newbie review by more experienced shell hackers would be appreciated. I did a git mv scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh usr/gen_initramfs.sh But the changes was so many that git does not see the rename. Due to the rename the diffstat shows a bit mroe changes than reality.

...in the initramfs and rebuild it if any files are newer than the initramfs and also rebuild if arguments changes (root_uid). In same process the usr/Kbuild file was cluttered with functionality that really belonged in a shell script. So in the end all functionality was moved to the shell script gen_initramfs_list.sh. The script got a new name and a new home during the process. It is now located in usr/ along with gen_init_cpio Outstanding issues: - needs to find a nice way to get rid of temp files - carefull review when I'm awake again Posting it here to get some inital comments on the approach and ma...

But with all the troubles this simple issue has caused me I woul not be suprised if there are some untested cornercase.
