Description: tools for generating an initramfs
|
|
This package contains tools to create and boot an initramfs for packaged 2.6
|
|
Linux kernel. The initramfs is a gzipped cpio archive. At boot time, the
|
|
kernel unpacks that archive into RAM, mounts and uses it as initial root file
|
|
system. The mounting of the real root file system occurs in early user space.
|
|
klibc provides utilities to setup root. Having the root on EVMS, MD, LVM2,
|
|
LUKS or NFS is also supported.
|
|
Any boot loader with initrd support is able to load an initramfs archive.
