2008-02-17initramfs-uniboot: FSTYPE -> ROOT_FSTYPE, set from rootfstype= command line ↵Paul Sokolovsky3
param.
2008-02-17* initramfs-module-bootmenu: Add support for jffs2 booting and "drop to ↵Paul Sokolovsky2
shell" option.
2008-02-17initramfs-module-block: Accept additional FSTYPE param, handle mount failure.Paul Sokolovsky1
* FSTYPE useful for FSes not automatically recognized by mount (e.g. jffs2).
2008-02-17initramfs-uniboot: Modprobe mtdblock and factor out fatal().Paul Sokolovsky1
2008-02-16initramfs-module-bootmenu, initramfs-module-kexecboot: Fixes for kexecing.Paul Sokolovsky2
* Be sure to pass original command line contents to new kernel. * Add protection against infinite recursive kexecing.
2008-02-16initramfs-module-kexecboot: Initramfs module to kexec to kernel in rootfs.Paul Sokolovsky1
* Instead of switch_root'ing to it, which was the only working mode previously. So, now, if there's /boot/zImage in rootfs, it will be kexec'ed too. Otherwise, switch_root will happen. * Caveat: there should be initramfs for new (kexec'ed to) kernel too, too handle its loading of rootfs as selected by interactive bootloader. This can be very same kernel as for bootloader, with bundled initramfs-bootmenu-image (which has special check - if root is explicitly specified on command line, then skip interactive selection); or, as a kind of optimization, that could be initramfs-image (no interactive part). Finally, initramfs (any of there two or other) can be a standalone file in rootfs, /boot/initramfs.bin.
2008-02-14initramfs-module-bootmenu 1.0: Add jffs2 to list of recoginized FSes.Paul Sokolovsky1
* This is likely not enough to make jffs2 boot work.
2008-02-06initramfs-module-check-modules: An initramfs module to check modules ↵Paul Sokolovsky1
consistency. * Checks that version of the boot kernel matches that of modules installed in rootfs. * A step towards providing manageable upgrade path for kernels outside rootfs.
2007-12-25initramfs-module-nfs: Fix packaging, add delay after g_ether load.Paul Sokolovsky1
2007-12-25initramfs-module-bootmenu 1.0: Use best-practice (based on FHS) location for ↵Paul Sokolovsky1
NFS root.
2007-11-24initramfs-module-bootmenu: Switch from using buggy mount --guess-fstype to ↵Paul Sokolovsky1
buggy klibc's fstype.
2007-11-22initramfs-module-bootmenu: Interactive boot location selection for ↵Paul Sokolovsky1
initramfs-uniboot. * For now, supports booting from ext2/ext3 partitions and from ext2/ext3 loopback images placed on vfat partition.
2007-11-22initramfs-module-loopboot: Allow to use absolute path for loop file location.Paul Sokolovsky1
2007-11-22initrdscripts: module-initfs: Be silent on loading non-existent module.Paul Sokolovsky1
* Use -q for modprobe, and as that apparently doesn't help bitbake's modprobe, redirect output to /dev/null.
2007-11-22initrdscripts: We obviously first do rootdelay, and only then create device ↵Paul Sokolovsky1
nodes.
2007-11-22initrdscripts: Separate fs kernel module loading to separate plugin.Paul Sokolovsky2
2007-11-22initrdscripts: Initial value for ROOT_DEV is null.Paul Sokolovsky1
2007-11-22initrdscripts: Introduce boot order support for universal initramfs modules.Paul Sokolovsky3
2007-07-20initramfs: Add blockboot plugin and cleanup dependency handling.Alex Osborne1
2007-07-19initramfs-module-nfs: Make it actually mount NFS by using the same option as ↵Paul Sokolovsky1
kernel does.
2007-07-19initramfs: New modular initramfs for booting kernel from various media.Alex Osborne3
* Design principles: * This initramfs just mounts roots and runs init on it, nothing else. * Whenever possible, existing kernel parameters are used. When extended boot methods are provided, new parameters mimick/adhere to existing conventions. * System is modular/pluggable - each mount method is in own module with more or less well defined interface, it's possible to construct complete system with any combination of modules. * Modules includes: initramfs-module-loop, initramfs-module-nfs, to boot from loop devices (including recursive loops) and NFS, correspondingly.
2007-07-17initramfs-nfsboot: Add parsing of kernel commandline params, bump version to 0.2Paul Sokolovsky1
* Untested.
2007-06-10initramfs-nfsboot 0.1: Sample initramfs script to boot from NFS.Paul Sokolovsky2
* Need too add parsing of kernel cmdline instead of hardcoded params.
