Huge initrd

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I compile my own vanilla kernels for testing and I noticed that the 
initrd of those kernels is huge as you will see in a moment[1]. The 
.config is a copy of Fedora's with only two modifications (append 
version and CPU family). The method of compiling is a classic make 
oldconfig; make all; make modules_install; make install. Why is my 
initrd so big? Thanks.
