Subject: [PATCH 5/5] initmpfs: Use initramfs if rootfstype= or root= specified.
Date: Sat, 29 Jun 2013 13:12:23 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1372536729.851657@landley.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1372536729.850447@landley.net>

From: Rob Landley <rob@landley.net>

Command line option rootfstype=ramfs to obtain old initramfs behavior,
and use ramfs instead of tmpfs for stub when root= defined (for cosmetic
reasons).
