update-miniramfs - generate a miniramfs image

Author

       Miniramfs is written by Arnaud Ferraris <aferraris@debian.org>, Jarrah Gosbell <debian@undef.tools>.

Description

       The  update-miniramfs  script  manages  your  miniramfs  images on your local box.  It keeps track of the
       existing miniramfs archives in /boot.  There are three modes of operation create, update or delete.   You
       must at least specify one of those modes.

       The  miniramfs  is  a  gzipped cpio archive containing the absolute minimum required to find and load the
       real initramfs. Once this is loaded boot is handed off to the initramfs.

Examples

       Update the miniramfs of all installed kernels (including those currently without miniramfs archives):

       update-miniramfs-u

       Create the miniramfs for a specific kernel:

       update-miniramfs-c-k6.0.0-6-amd64

Name

       update-miniramfs - generate a miniramfs image

Options

-kversion
              Set the specific kernel version to generate a miniramfs for.  For example the output of  uname  -r
              for  your  currently running kernel.  This argument is mandatory for create/delete and ignored for
              update.

       -c     This mode creates a new miniramfs archive.

       -u     This mode updates all miniramfs archives and creates new ones for all newly installed kernels.

       -d     This mode deletes an existing miniramfs archive.

       -h, --help
              Print a short help page describing the available options in update-miniramfs.
