Hello,
I'm new to crux and I would like to test it. Unfortunately, after the
installation the system doesn't boot. I use lilo as bootloader and I
have installed lvm. There is a partition for /boot (without lvm) and
another one with lvm for the other directories.
I have compiled my kernel without initrd. After searching, I think an
initrd is necessary with lvm. In "core" or "opt" the utility "mkinitrd"
is not available. Is there an alternative to "mkinitrd" to create the
initrd ?
Maybe
cd /usr/ports
find -name .footprint | xargs grep mkinitrd
will tell you which (contrib?) package provides it.
Ah! Maybe not ...
The Crux wiki entry https://crux.nu/Wiki/BuildingISO may be a starting point. The Makefile there seems to refer (at the initramfs Makefile target) to
kernel/linux-3.xx.y/usr/gen_init_cpio
which may be a substitute for what you are looking for. This Makefile taught me much more.
Thanks!
Regards,
