help: | Create an initramfs for a system by taking an existing system and converting it to the appropriate format. The system must have a `/init` executable as the userland entry-point. This can have a different path, if `rdinit=$path` is added to the kernel command line. This can be added to the `rawdisk`, `virtualbox-ssh` and `kvm` write extensions with the `KERNEL_CMDLINE` option. It is possible to use a ramfs as the final rootfs without a `/init` executable, by setting `root=/dev/mem`, or `rdinit=/sbin/init`, but this is beyond the scope for the `initramfs.write` extension. The intended use of initramfs.write is to be part of a nested deployment, so the parent system has an initramfs stored as `/boot/initramfs.gz`. See the following example: name: initramfs-test kind: cluster systems: - morph: minimal-system-x86_64-generic deploy: system: type: rawdisk location: initramfs-system-x86_64.img DISK_SIZE: 1G HOSTNAME: initramfs-system INITRAMFS_PATH: boot/initramfs.gz subsystems: - morph: initramfs-x86_64 deploy: initramfs: type: initramfs location: boot/initramfs.gz
