Subject: [Buildroot] Creating initrd
Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2012 10:05:03 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1349964303.8392.39.camel@Homeserver> (raw)
I haven't been able to figure out how to get BR to create an initial
ramdisk.
I selected initramfs in Filesystem images. What I end up with is
-rw-r--r-- 1 chrisw chrisw 38356992 Oct 11 09:00 rootfs.cpio
-rw-r--r-- 1 chrisw chrisw 13666196 Oct 11 09:00 rootfs.cpio.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 chrisw chrisw 48346112 Oct 11 09:00 rootfs.ext2
-rw-r--r-- 1 chrisw chrisw 13990321 Oct 11 09:00 rootfs.ext2.gz
-rwxr-xr-x 1 chrisw chrisw 1422576 Oct 11 09:01 zImage
There is no initrd and the rootfs is way too big for flash.
