2008-03-08initramfs-uniboot: Add new global var - CONSOLE - and start to use it as ↵Paul Sokolovsky2
output device. * This is to workaround bogus console= passed in by bootldr.
2008-03-08initramfs-module-bootldr-buster: Add initial code to workaround bogus system ↵Paul Sokolovsky2
console issue. * The main trouble is the bogus console=ttySA0 passed by bootldr It appears that kernel doesn't have protection against only invalid consoles being passed on the command line, which means that the kernel is deaf and dumb when booted by bootldr.
2008-03-08initramfs-module-bootldr-buster: initramfs module to fight Compaq bootldr ↵Paul Sokolovsky2
stupidity.
2008-03-08initramfs-uniboot: Add support for early-init plugins.Paul Sokolovsky2
* Extend plugin protocol: plugins matching pattern '0*' are early-init, executed ASAP after boot, before kernel command and block devices are scanned. And thus, they can affect parsing of kernel command line (by overriding $CMDLINE) or detection of block devices (e.g. by loading additional modules).
2008-03-08initramfs-module-bootmenu: If rootdelay= param was not passed, assume 2s ↵Paul Sokolovsky2
delay still. * So people who don't bother to set correct rootdelay still have good chance for there SD/CF cards detected. * To disable the feature, explicit rootdelay=0 should be passed on kernel command line.
2008-03-08initramfs-module-bootmenu: Show only block devices with FSes supported for boot.Paul Sokolovsky2
2008-03-08initramfs-module-bootmenu: Use klibc-linked fstype util, tested to work as ↵Paul Sokolovsky1
expected.
2008-03-07liveramdisk-image, initramfs-jffs2: Be sure to depend on/load mtdblock.Paul Sokolovsky2
2008-03-01klibc-utils-fstype 1.1.1: Rename to klibc-utils-fstype-static.Paul Sokolovsky1
* Dirty rename games until we'll have klibc-utils buildable and working.
2008-02-22initramfs-kexec: change rootdev vor collie from mtdblock2 to mtd2Thomas Kunze1
2008-02-17kernel-initramfs, initramfs-image-ipk: Remove recipes with recursive bitbake ↵Paul Sokolovsky2
invocations. * As not maintainable on global OE level.
2008-02-17initramfs-uniboot: FSTYPE -> ROOT_FSTYPE, set from rootfstype= command line ↵Paul Sokolovsky6
param.
2008-02-17* initramfs-module-bootmenu: Add support for jffs2 booting and "drop to ↵Paul Sokolovsky4
shell" option.
2008-02-17initramfs-module-block: Accept additional FSTYPE param, handle mount failure.Paul Sokolovsky2
* FSTYPE useful for FSes not automatically recognized by mount (e.g. jffs2).
2008-02-17initramfs-uniboot: Modprobe mtdblock and factor out fatal().Paul Sokolovsky2
2008-02-17devimage 0.1: Link init script to /sbin/init, so this can be booted as ↵Paul Sokolovsky1
normal rootfs. * In addition to default initramfs booting.
2008-02-16initramfs-module-bootmenu, initramfs-module-kexecboot: Fixes for kexecing.Paul Sokolovsky4
* Be sure to pass original command line contents to new kernel. * Add protection against infinite recursive kexecing.
2008-02-16devimage 0.1: Up a usb0 on load, now that we're modular.Paul Sokolovsky2
2008-02-16initramfs-module-kexecboot: Initramfs module to kexec to kernel in rootfs.Paul Sokolovsky2
* 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.
2008-02-15kernel-initramfs: A recipe to build a kernel with linked in initramfs.Paul Sokolovsky1
* First builds ${KERNEL_INITRAMFS} in cpio.gz format, then stuffs it into kernel as specified by virtual/kernel, deploys to deploy dir, and packages kernel-image (the package would overrite previously built kernel-image package w/o initramfs, so caveat). * kernel-image packaing actually requires PKGPV/PKGPR support, to be RFCed.
2008-02-15initramfs-image-ipk: Package initramfs into package.Paul Sokolovsky1
* Go badass with recursive bitbake invocation idea expressed on ML. * It works! But don't try with BB_NUMBER_THREADS > 1 or at home.
2008-02-14initramfs-module-bootmenu 1.0: Add jffs2 to list of recoginized FSes.Paul Sokolovsky2
* This is likely not enough to make jffs2 boot work.
2008-02-06initramfs-module-check-modules: An initramfs module to check modules ↵Paul Sokolovsky2
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.

NFS boot.

buggy klibc's fstype.

initramfs-uniboot. * For now, supports booting from ext2/ext3 partitions and from ext2/ext3 loopback images placed on vfat partition.

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.

2007-07-19initramfs-nfsboot: Remove, superseded by initramfs-module-nfs.Paul Sokolovsky1
2007-07-19initramfs-module-nfs: Make it actually mount NFS by using the same option as ↵Paul Sokolovsky2
kernel does.
2007-07-19initramfs: New modular initramfs for booting kernel from various media.Alex Osborne6
* 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 Sokolovsky2
