Creating a custom initrd.img
Posted by stuporglue on Mar 14, 2010 in Computers
If Ubuntu installed, tries to boot, but fails, you probably are missing some important driver. To have a driver available at boot time, you’ll need to rebuild initrd.img. It’s a gzipped cpio file now, and this is how to build it on Ubuntu. Any tutorial that you find using ramfs or cramfs doesn’t apply to the Ubuntu initrd!
