107 | dracut-001 |
108 | ========== | |
109 | - better --hostonly checks | |
110 | - better lvm/mdraid/dmraid handling | |
111 | - fcoe booting support | |
112 | Supported cmdline formats: | |
113 | fcoe=<networkdevice>:<dcb|nodcb> | |
114 | fcoe=<macaddress>:<dcb|nodcb> | |
115 | ||
116 | Note currently only nodcb is supported, the dcb option is reserved for | |
117 | future use. | |
118 | ||
119 | Note letters in the macaddress must be lowercase! | |
120 | ||
121 | Examples: | |
122 | fcoe=eth0:nodcb | |
123 | fcoe=4A:3F:4C:04:F8:D7:nodcb | |
124 | ||
125 | - Syslog support for dracut | |
126 | This module provides syslog functionality in the initrd. | |
127 | This is especially interesting when complex configuration being | |
128 | used to provide access to the device the rootfs resides on. | |
129 | ||

131 | dracut-0.9 |
132 | ========== | |
133 | - let plymouth attach to the terminal (nice text output now) | |
134 | - new kernel command line parameter "rdinfo" show dracut output, even when | |
135 | "quiet" is specified | |
136 | - rd_LUKS_UUID is now handled correctly | |
137 | - dracut-gencmdline: rd_LUKS_UUID and rd_MD_UUID is now correctly generated | |
138 | - now generates initrd-generic with around 15MB | |
139 | - smaller bugfixes | |
140 | ||
0de91060 HH |
141 | dracut-0.8 |
142 | ========== | |
143 | - iSCSI with username and password | |
144 | - support for live images (dmsquashed live images) | |
145 | - iscsi_firmware fixes | |
146 | - smaller images | |
147 | - bugfixes | |
148 | ||
149 | dracut-0.7 | |
150 | ========== | |
151 | - dracut: strip binaries in initramfs | |
152 | ||
153 | --strip | |
154 | strip binaries in the initramfs (default) | |
155 | ||
156 | --nostrip | |
157 | do not strip binaries in the initramfs | |
158 | - dracut-catimages | |
159 | ||
160 | Usage: ./dracut-catimages [OPTION]... <initramfs> <base image> | |
161 | [<image>...] | |
162 | Creates initial ramdisk image by concatenating several images from the | |
163 | command | |
164 | line and /boot/dracut/ | |
165 | ||
166 | -f, --force Overwrite existing initramfs file. | |
167 | -i, --imagedir Directory with additional images to add | |
168 | (default: /boot/dracut/) | |
169 | -o, --overlaydir Overlay directory, which contains files that | |
170 | will be used to create an additional image | |
171 | --nooverlay Do not use the overlay directory | |
172 | --noimagedir Do not use the additional image directory | |
173 | -h, --help This message | |
174 | --debug Output debug information of the build process | |
175 | -v, --verbose Verbose output during the build process | |
176 | ||
177 | - s390 dasd support | |
178 | ||
179 | dracut-0.6 | |
180 | ========== | |
181 | - dracut: add --kernel-only and --no-kernel arguments | |
182 | ||
183 | --kernel-only | |
184 | only install kernel drivers and firmware files | |
185 | ||
186 | --no-kernel | |
187 | do not install kernel drivers and firmware files | |
188 | ||
189 | All kernel module related install commands moved from "install" | |
190 | to "installkernel". | |
191 | ||
192 | For "--kernel-only" all installkernel scripts of the specified | |
193 | modules are used, regardless of any checks, so that all modules | |
194 | which might be needed by any dracut generic image are in. | |
195 | ||
196 | The basic idea is to create two images. One image with the kernel | |
197 | modules and one without. So if the kernel changes, you only have | |
198 | to replace one image. | |
199 | ||
200 | Grub and the kernel can handle multiple images, so grub entry can | |
201 | look like this: | |
202 | ||
203 | title Fedora (2.6.29.5-191.fc11.i586) | |
204 | root (hd0,0) | |
205 | kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.29.5-191.fc11.i586 ro rhgb quiet | |
206 | initrd /initrd-20090722.img /initrd-kernel-2.6.29.5-191.fc11.i586.img /initrd-config.img | |
207 | ||
208 | initrd-20090722.img | |
209 | the image provided by the initrd rpm | |
210 | one old backup version is kept like with the kernel | |
211 | ||
212 | initrd-kernel-2.6.29.5-191.fc11.i586.img | |
213 | the image provided by the kernel rpm | |
214 | ||
215 | initrd-config.img | |
216 | optional image with local configuration files | |
217 | ||
218 | - dracut: add --kmoddir directory, where to look for kernel modules | |
219 | ||
220 | -k, --kmoddir [DIR] | |
221 | specify the directory, where to look for kernel modules | |
222 | ||
223 | ||
224 | ||
225 | dracut-0.5 | |
226 | ========== | |
227 | - more generic (all plymouth modules, all keyboards, all console fonts) | |
228 | - more kernel command line parameters (see also man dracut(8)) | |
229 | - a helper tool, which generates the kernel command line (dracut-gencmdline) | |
230 | - bridged network boot | |
231 | - a lot of new command line parameter | |
232 | ||
233 | dracut-0.4 | |
234 | ========== | |
235 | - bugfixes | |
236 | - firmware loading support | |
237 | - new internal queue (initqueue) | |
238 | initqueue now loops until /dev/root exists or root is mounted | |
239 | ||
240 | init now has the following points to inject scripts: | |
241 | ||
242 | /cmdline/*.sh | |
243 | scripts for command line parsing | |
244 | ||
245 | /pre-udev/*.sh | |
246 | scripts to run before udev is started | |
247 | ||
248 | /pre-trigger/*.sh | |
249 | scripts to run before the main udev trigger is pulled | |
250 | ||
251 | /initqueue/*.sh | |
252 | runs in parallel to the udev trigger | |
253 | Udev events can add scripts here with /sbin/initqueue. | |
254 | If /sbin/initqueue is called with the "--onetime" option, the script | |
255 | will be removed after it was run. | |
256 | If /initqueue/work is created and udev >= 143 then this loop can | |
257 | process the jobs in parallel to the udevtrigger. | |
258 | If the udev queue is empty and no root device is found or no root | |
259 | filesystem was mounted, the user will be dropped to a shell after | |
260 | a timeout. | |
261 | Scripts can remove themselves from the initqueue by "rm $job". | |
262 | ||
263 | /pre-mount/*.sh | |
264 | scripts to run before the root filesystem is mounted | |
265 | NFS is an exception, because it has no device node to be created | |
266 | and mounts in the udev events | |
267 | ||
268 | /mount/*.sh | |
269 | scripts to mount the root filesystem | |
270 | NFS is an exception, because it has no device node to be created | |
271 | and mounts in the udev events | |
272 | If the udev queue is empty and no root device is found or no root | |
273 | filesystem was mounted, the user will be dropped to a shell after | |
274 | a timeout. | |
275 | ||
276 | /pre-pivot/*.sh | |
277 | scripts to run before the real init is executed and the initramfs | |
278 | disappears | |
279 | All processes started before should be killed here. | |
280 | ||
281 | The behaviour of the dmraid module demonstrates how to use the new | |
282 | mechanism. If it detects a device which is part of a raidmember from a | |
283 | udev rule, it installs a job to scan for dmraid devices, if the udev | |
284 | queue is empty. After a scan, it removes itsself from the queue. | |
285 | ||
286 | ||
287 | ||
