[Maxlinux-devel] [RFC] InceptionOS driver pack format specification

[Kelledin <kel...@sk...>]

Yet another document to poke, prod, laud, lambast, change, and=20
finally convert to DocBook SGML. ;)

One thing to note is that I'm currently working on a script that=20
takes a set of driver packs on the command line and combines=20
them into a single initrd image.  It automates a lot of the=20
things like constructing module lists on the initrd and checking=20
mount options for the system's "real" root FS.  Chances are,=20
this script (and the source code for the initrd's customized=20
/sbin/init executable) will be released as a single tarball and=20
turned into yet another RPM package.
