Hello, I currently try to deploy a single rootfs update mechanism for my embedded device. I can't boot to initramfs using either "break" or "break=premount" (without quotes...). I tried this in systemd-boot and grub-efi (always efi boot) but the boot process just continues normally. If I insert at the same point e.g. "quiet" this argument is recognised. I boot the .wic image with a separate boot partition from a USB stick. in local.conf I have set: INITRAMFS_IMAGE = "core-image-minimal-initramfs" INITRAMFS_IMAGE_BUNDLE = "1"
In order to reduce complexity I now use the standard core-image-minimal-initramfs without .bbappend. I can confirm (from seeing the task) that bitbake bundled the kernel with the initramfs. You can find the /var/log/dmesg here: https://pastebin.com/ya7iCtq7 To my understanding the initramfs should be embedded in /boot/bzImage. However since I use an intel platform I also have a /boot/microcode.cpio which gets loaded via "initrd /microcode.cpio". Removing this line in grub does not enable me to get an initramfs prompt either (again, using break as option). Did I forget some configuration or do I have to put the break statement at a very specific position within the "linux ..." boot command ? Do you know which bitbake variables to check ? (both set in local.conf do not get overwritten, already checked this). I got the thud branch checked out in all my meta-layers except for meta-qt which is currently on master branch. Help is much appreciated ! Best regards Moritz -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
