FAQ

This document provides links to documents that answer some questions about make-initrd.

How it works ?

Please read the document about this.

How to create a new feature ?

There is a separate document on this.

The initramfs won't load on my computer. What to do ?

If the resulting initramfs image does not work and you do not know what to do, then write to me and attach the result of the command:

$ make-initrd bug-report

As a result, an archive will be made with information about the equipment on the computer. The archive will not include personal data.

Why isn't systemd being used ?

The systemd is very complex and difficult to debug. The systemd developers also require many of the latest linux kernel features. For initramfs, these requirements are superfluous and redundant.
