In this case, initramfs is your root filesystem, from which you load |
| 15 |
another fs and then transfer (pivot root?) to it. You have to build |
| 16 |
initramfs support into the kernel, to boot an initramfs. So my argument |
| 17 |
still stands, regardless of whether your *INITIAL* filesystem is ext4fs, |
| 18 |
or ZFS, or initramfs, that *INITIAL* filesystem has to be built into the |
| 19 |
kernel. Also, I really wonder what the point is in having to use |
| 20 |
initramfs on a system where /usr is part of /. |
