Hi all, I am trying to understand a bit initramfs and genkernel and I have few (basic) questions.
I understand that one must have in the initramfs those modules which are required to boot the system, for instance to access /dev . Now: - can a module be present both in the initramfs and as kernel module in /lib/modules ? - how does genkernel decide which modules to put in the initramfs ? - can modules included in the initramfs be unloaded once the system is running, as modprobe -r - can modprobe load modules from the initramfs ? Well, clearly I am a bit confused about the topic - I hope somebody can help me a bit! Thank you, Marco
