This is an old revision of the document!

A PCRE internal error occured. This might be caused by a faulty plugin

A howto guide to building the kernel initramfs and bundling those into one .ebi or .elf file using wraplinux. This document is and will be for some time, a work in progress. I plan to include any scripts and related items that are generated, and to explain things as best I can. Over time, I hope this document reaches an point of simplicity that can only be duplicated, not surpassed. This document is focused around 2.6 Kernels, although it would probably work on 2.4 kernels, I do not have the need nor the time to try. For the sake of keeping things sane, I will outline a working directory structure that puts everything in the root directory, in a folder named "scratch". ( /scratch ) Let's get started...\\ \\ ---- [[elf-ebi-initramfs-lnxi-howto/The Kernel]] ( Kernel .config settings, building, etc. ) ---- [[elf-ebi-initramfs-lnxi-howto/Packages]] ( Packages needed, dhclient, switchroot, etc..) ---- [[The initramfs]] ( initramfs building, linuxrc, etc.. ) ---- [[Packaging]] ( Building an .elf, .ebi, and possibly other formats using wraplinux ) ---- \\ \\ Joshua McDowell (GPL V2)
