[PATCH v2] defaultenv: boot/net: Boot initramfs from tftp if present

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

 



Use an 'initramfs' file if it exists instead of nfsroot. This offers the
possibility to quickly boot complete filesystems as initramfs without
the need to flash an SD-card or similar. If the initramfs does not
exist, it uses the default nfsroot mechanism.

Changes in v2:
- Changed variable name to 'initramfs' to make clear that this is intended to
  be used for initramfs. initrd is possible but requires additional linux
  bootargs
- Removed the hardcoded 'rdinit' bootarg
