List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-15" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Sender: kexec-bounces@lists.infradead.org Errors-To: kexec-bounces+dwmw2=infradead.org@lists.infradead.org To: kexec@lists.infradead.org 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 usi= ng 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?
