Creating a new initramfs template
The initramfs template supplied by oneSIS can be used to bootstrap any
x86 compatible machine. Similar templates for other
architectures may be included in future releases of oneSIS. It is
possible to add extra functionality to an existing template to
create a new one and still have the functionality and convenience
offered by mk-initramfs-oneSIS for
creating new initramfss.
If none of the existing logic in the
initramfs template is changed, mk-initramfs-oneSIS can use any
derived templates to create initramfss with added functionality. There
is a specific place in the initramfs's init script
specifically designated for additional logic. Any other creative
bootstrapping logic can be added there, without losing existing
functionality.
