1 hi,
2 i have a quite big initramfs, kernel size is approx. 5,7 MB. Adding new things
3 to my initramfs does not work, because grub fails to load kernels with >6MB.
4 so, does anybody know the exact limit of the kernel file size, that grub is
5 able to load? is it platform-specific?
6
7 TIA, florian
