Building a file system ( Ramdisk)
Hi everybody,
I'm a Linux newbie I'm trying to build a Diskless system:
I've a PC able to boot from the Network using the PXE and pxelinux on a remote server using tftp at this stage I've configured the server and the client an it's OK.
my PC while booting can download a kernel image and a ramdisk, I'm using the following config in the server :
---------------------------------
prompt 1
default linux
timeout 30
label linux
kernel bzImage
append initrd=initrd.gz
----------------------------------
Of course I can add more options in append
I've compiled the kernel with a support for initrd and ramdisk.
My question is how to build a valid ramdisk from the scratch( I need only a very basic file sys with a bash and a minimum of tools )
I need your help - to have details on howto do it.
Thanks
Cheers,
