Subject: kexec kernel with embedded initrd?
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2008 00:45:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49498F24.7040000@anduras.de> (raw)
Hello!
Sorry to bother you, just a short question, because I didn't find anything
in the documentation or mailing list and I want to know if it should work
before I try to find the error.
I want to boot a kernel (bzImage) with an embedded initrd (CPIO archive using
the CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE option).
Can I simply load the kernel with kexec or do I have to extract the initrd
first and load them using the --initrd option?
If I have to extract them first, is there a tool for this?
Regards
Sven
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Sven Anders
