[edit] does gentoo will pack mkinitramfs some day ?

whenever and wherever be it gentoo forums,or #gentoo chat or anywhere,devels will be convincing everyone that initramfs is sin.nobody will answer/know how to create one.especially for when we compile for custom sources.

But...I have found a post after a lot of googling that explains in a single line of code to build a cpio image :-)

find . | cpio --quiet --dereference -o -H newc | gzip -9 > ../initramfs.img http://www.nullis.net/blog/2006/05/acer-aspire-1694-and-acpi/#comments

also,please developer(s).bundle mkinitramfs,yaird and other necessary tools.otherwise it is a PITA!heh! 59.93.22.112 10:29, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
