A fully Go userland with Linux bootloaders! u-root can create a one-binary root file system (initramfs) containing a busybox-like set of tools written in Go.

Features

  • Go versions of many standard Linux tools, such as ls, cp, or shutdown
  • Documentation available
  • A way to compile many Go programs into a single binary with busybox mode
  • A way to create initramfs (an archive of files) to use with Linux kernels, embeddable into firmware
  • Go bootloaders that use kexec to boot Linux or multiboot kernels such as ESXi, Xen, or tboot
  • Make sure your Go version is >= 1.21
  • Examples available
