Subject: x86/microcode update on systems without INITRD
Date: Thu, 19 Nov 2015 22:43:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151119214301.GA318@x4> (raw)
It looks like the ability to update x86/microcode without using an
initrd was removed this merge window.
Why?
I've used "echo -n 1 >| /sys/devices/system/cpu/microcode/reload" in my
init script for years without any issues.
