Changing the root of your Linux filesystem - Marcus Folkesson pivot_root pivot_root moves the root file system of the current process to the directory put_old and makes new_root the new root file system It's often used in combination with chroot From the manpage : The typical use of pivot_root() is during system startup, when the system mounts a temporary root file system (e g , an initrd), then mounts the real root file system, and eventually turns
Testing Unity Session in 18. 10 - #7 by chanath - Ubuntu Unity . . . @khurshid-alam Just downloaded Xubuntu 18 10 daily to have a look There is no initrd lz in casper any more, but just initrd, without the lz extension Its OK as in Linux, you really don’t need an extension as in Windows Here with the Xubuntu live iso, we are sort of not given the chance to find out what compression is used to pack that “initrd ” Actually, what compression was used is
Linux distro with Nvidia driver + CUDA preinstalled? The cuda toolkit is not freely distributable, so there’s no public linux image including it available Modifying a live image will be tricky, you can create a live usb drive with file persistence so you can (probably) install the cuda toolkit but not the driver That would require manipulating the initrd kernel
Are there any tools to edit the initrd file in Windows? An initrd is a filesystem image, typically ext2, for which there is no good support on Windows However these days, the file is likely to be an initramfs instead, even if it's called initrd-SOMETHING, and an initramfs is a cpio archive which can be manipulated with the cpio command in Cygwin or other Windows ports of Linux utilities

Ramfs, rootfs and initramfs — The Linux Kernel documentation The old initrd was always a separate file, while the initramfs archive is linked into the linux kernel image (The directory linux-* usr is devoted to generating this archive during the build ) The old initrd file was a gzipped filesystem image (in some file format, such as ext2, that needed a driver built into the kernel), while the new initramfs archive is a gzipped cpio archive (like tar
dns323-firmware-tools : Noble (24. 04) : Ubuntu This package contains programs for manipulating the firmware images used by a range of small consumer-grade NAS devices, such as the D-Link DNS-323 These firmware images are what are used to "bundle" the kernel, initrd, and other data when uploading new firmware images using the "stock" interface If you are already running a custom firmware, it is likely that these tools will be of no use

How do I put VMware guest drivers in the initrd? - Server Fault If I copy the initrd img file from a box with vmwaretools installed, I get a kernel panic when trying to boot of the initrd img file There is a size difference so I have assumed that essentially the difference is that one contains more drivers and the other only drivers important to the server, but why the kernel panic
