Now to my first question: The kernel is compiled WITHOUT any fs driver... So how the f@#ck did he mounted initramfs? How are the files formatted?
I think it's using any kind of RAM based fs, like ramfs or tmpfs....like the name says init-ram-fs
Please note that the image you give qemu (or bootloader) to use as initrd is *not* formatted using any mkfs. It's just created with: $ find . | cpio -H newc -o > ../initramfs.cpio And the compiled kernel has no support for *any* filesystem. So, the question is: how are those files formatted? (Guess the answer is: look at the code) Thanks! Ezequiel.
