|
| '''mkinitcpio''' is the next generation of '''initramfs creation'''. It has many advantages above the old '''mkinitrd''' and '''mkinitramfs''' scripts. | | '''mkinitcpio''' ist die nächste Generation der '''initramfs'''-Erstellung. Es hat viele Vorteile gegenüber den alten Skripten '''mkinitrd''' und '''mkinitramfs'''. |
|
| |
|
| * It uses '''klibc''' and '''kinit''' which are developed by Linux kernel devs to provide a small and lightweight base for early userspace. | | * Es nutzt '''klibc''' und '''kinit''' der Linux-Entwickler, welches eine kleine und leichtgewichtige Basis bereitstellt, um Programme sehr früh im ''userspace'' laufen zu lassen. |
| * It can use '''udev''' for hardware autodetection at runtime, thus prevents you from having tons of unnecessary modules loaded. | | * Es kann mittels '''udev''' die Hardware zur Laufzeit erkennen, so dass nur die wirklich nötigen Module geladen werden. |
| * Its hook-based init script is easily extendable with custom hooks, which can easily be included in pacman packages without having to modifiy mkinitcpio itself. | | * Die hook-basierenden init-Scripte sind leicht erweiterbar und können auch durch externe Pakete genutzt werden. |
| * It already supports '''lvm2''', '''dm-crypt''' for both legacy and luks volumes, '''raid''', '''swsusp''' and '''suspend2''' resuming and booting from '''usb mass storage''' devices. | | * Es unterstützt bereits '''lvm2''', '''dm-crypt''' (legacy und luks volumes), '''raid''', '''swsusp''' und '''suspend2''' Fortsetzen und Starten von '''usb''' Datenträgern. |
| * Many features can be configured from the kernel command line without having to rebuild the image. | | * Viele Funktionen können von der Kernel-Kommandozeile konfiguriert werden ohne das Image neu erstellen zu müssen. |
| * The '''mkinitcpio''' script makes it possible to include the image in a kernel, thus making a self-contained kernel image is possible. | | * Mit dem '''mkinitcpio'''-Skript ist es möglich, das Image in den Kernel zu integrieren. |
|
| |
|
| '''mkinitcpio''' has been developed by '''phrakture''' and '''tpowa''' with some help from the community. | | '''mkinitcpio''' wurde von '''phrakture''' und '''tpowa''' mit Hilfe aus der Community entwickelt. |
|
| |
|
| It is currently in '''beta stage'''. To use it, you have to generate the image yourself and add it to the bootloader. Please always keep your old initrd or initramfs images intact so you will be able to boot if you hit bugs in mkinitcpio.
| | {{installation|paket=mkinitcpio|repo=core}} |
| The '''2.6.17''' kernel packages already added mkinitcpio support.
| |

|
| = Installing mkinitcpio =
| | mkinitcpio ist Bestandteil jeder Arch Linux Installation. |
| == From the current repository ==
| |
|
| |
|
| The '''mkinitcpio''' script has made its move to the current repository. You can install with the command
| | == Konfiguration == |
| # pacman -Sy mkinitcpio
| |
|
| |
|
| == From svn ==
| | Die Konfigurationsdatei lautet {{ic|/etc/mkinitcpio.conf}}. |
|
| |
|
| If you want the latest development version of '''mkinitcpio''', check out phrakture's svn repository using
| | === MODULES === |
| # svn co http://phraktured.net/initramfs
| |
| The newest scripts are now in the '''initramfs/mkinitcpio''' directory.
| |
|
| |
|
| = Activation for >=2.6.17 kernels =
| | Mit dem MODULES-Eintrag können Module explizit dem Image hinzugefügt werden. |
| There will be 2 images created during kernel installation/upgrade:
| |
|
| |
|
| - '''kernel26'''
| | Beispiel: Bei Verwendung des nouveau Treiber wird bereits die Konsole beim Starten diesen verwenden. |
| /boot/kernel26.img --> stripped down in size by autodetect
| |
| /boot/kernel26-fallback.img --> contains all modules of subsystems
| |
| - '''kernel26beyond'''
| |
| /boot/kernel26beyond.img --> stripped down in size by autodetect
| |
| /boot/kernel26beyond-fallback.img --> contains all modules of subsystems
| |
| Please change your bootloader to load the correct image you need.
| |
|
| |
| == ATTENTION => '''lvm2''', '''raid''' and '''encrypt''' are NOT enabled by default ==
| |
| '''lvm2''', '''raid''' and '''encrypt''' are not! enabled by default.
| |
| Please read this wiki carefully on how to setup those stuff, and configure it
| |
| for your system.
| |
|
| |
|
| = Customizing the Configuration Files = | | MODULES=(nouveau) |
|
| |
|
| == '''Modifying main image''' == | | === BINARIES und FILES === |
| To change the defaults for the main image edit the following file:
| |
|
| |
|
| /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
| | Mit diesen Optionen können Dateien dem Abbild hinzugefügt werden. Der einzige Unterschied zwischen BINARIES und FILES ist, dass BINARIES die Bibliotheken nach Abhängigkeiten durchsucht, während FILES nur Dateien hinzufügt. |
|
| |
|
| mkinitcpio uses this file by default.
| | === HOOKS === |
|
| |
|
| == '''Modifying fallback image''' ==
| | Dies ist der wichtigste Teil der mkinitcpio Konfiguration. Diese Zeile enthält alle HOOKS, welche während der Imageerstellung oder zur Laufzeit ausgeführt werden. Hierbei muss die Reihenfolge beachtet werden: |
| To change the defaults for the fallback images edit the following files:
| |
| kernel26 --> '/boot/mkinitcpio-kernel26.conf'
| |
| kernel26beyond --> '/boot/mkinitcpio-kernel26beyond.conf
| |
| and set them to '''NoUpgrade =''' in '/etc/pacman.conf'. Note that these should be sane unless you require a special setup such as lvm or raid.
| |
|
| |
|
| | HOOKS=(foo1 foo2 bar1 bar2) |
|
| |
|
| == Configuring the HOOKS ==
| | Am besten man prüft anhand des eigenen Systems, welche HOOKS aktuell verfügbar sind. Zusätzlich wird angezeigt, welche als veraltet gelten, und welche zukünftig verwendet werden sollen. |
|
| |
|
| This is the most important part of mkinitcpio configuration. The HOOKS line contains the hooks that are executed on image creation and on runtime in the exact order they are executed. The format is like this:
| | mkinitcpio -L |
|
| |
|
| HOOKS="foo1 foo2 foo3 bar1 bar2"
| | Für jeden gelisteten HOOK gibt es eine Zusatzinfo. |
|
| |

| ! Hook || Installation || Runtime | | ! Hook || Information |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''base''' || Sets up all initial directories and installs base klibc utilities and libraries. Always add this hook unless you know what you are doing. || | | | '''base''' || This hook provides crucial runtime necessities for booting. DO NOT remove this hook unless you know what you're doing. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''udev''' || Adds udev to your image || Udev will be used to create your root device node and detect the needed modules for your root device. As it simplifies things, using the udev hook is recommended. | | | '''udev''' || This hook will use udev to create your root device node and detect the needed modules for your root device. It is also required for firmware loading in initramfs. It is recommended to use this hook. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''modload''' || || An alternative autodetecion method which is much slower than udev. Using this hook is discouraged. Use udev instead. | | |'''microcode''' || This hook adds early microcode update files for Intel and AMD processors. If /boot/amd-ucode.img or /boot/intel-ucode.img exist, they are included in the initcpio. If not, the individual microcode files in /lib/firmware/ are included if they exist. If the autodetect hook runs before this hook, it will only add early microcode update files for the processor of the system the image is built on. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''autodetect''' || Shrinks your initramfs to a smaller size by autodetecting your needed modules. Be sure to verify included modules are correct and none are missing. This hook must be run before other subsystem hooks in order to take advantage of auto-detection. Any hooks placed before 'autodetect' will be installed in full. || | | | '''systemd''' || This will install a basic systemd setup in your initramfs, and is meant to replace the 'base', 'usr', 'udev' and 'timestamp' hooks. Other hooks with runtime components will need to be ported, and will not work as intended. You also may wish to still include the 'base' hook (before this hook) to ensure that a rescue shell exists on your initramfs. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''ide''' || Adds IDE modules to the image. Use this if your root device is on a IDE disk. Also use the '''autodetect''' hook if you want to minimize your image size || Loads IDE modules. You will need the '''udev''' or '''modload''' hook unless you specify the needed modules manually (see MODULES section below). | | | '''modconf''' || This hook installs modprobe configuration files from /etc/modprobe.d and /usr/lib/modprobe.d. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''sata''' || Adds serial ATA modules to the image. Use this if your root device is on a SATA disk. Also use the '''autodetect''' hook if you want to minimize your image size. || Loads SATA modules. You will need the '''udev''' or '''modload''' hook unless you specify the needed modules manually (see MODULES section below). | | | '''usr''' || This provides a support for mounting /usr via a late running hook. No configuration is needed, as the mount options will be pulled directly from the fstab on the real root device. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''scsi''' || Adds SCSI modules to the image. Use this if your root device is on a SCSI disk. Also use the '''autodetect''' hook if you want to minimize your image size. || Loads SCSI modules. You will need the '''udev''' or '''modload''' hook unless you specify the needed modules manually (see MODULES section below). | | | '''autodetect''' || This hook shrinks your initramfs to a smaller size by autodetecting the needed modules. Be sure to verify included modules are correct and none are missing. This hook must be run before other subsystem hooks in order to take advantage of auto-detection. Any hooks placed before 'autodetect' will be installed in full. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''usb''' || Adds USB modules to the image. Use this if your root device is on a USB mass storage device. || Loads USB modules. You will need the '''udev''' or '''modload''' hook unless you specify the needed modules manually (see MODULES section below). | | | '''sata''' || This hook is deprecated in favor of 'block' |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''usbinput''' || Adds USB HID modules to the image. Use this if you have an USB keyboard and need it in early userspace (either for entering encryption passphrases or for failsafe mode) || Loads USB HID modules. You will need the '''udev''' or '''modload''' hook unless you specify the needed modules manually (see MODULES section below). | | | '''scsi''' || This hook is deprecated in favor of 'block' |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''fw''' || Adds Firewire modules to the image. Use this if your root device is on a FW mass storage device. || Loads FW modules. You will need the '''udev''' or '''modload''' hook unless you specify the needed modules manually (see MODULES section below). | | | '''usb''' || This hook is deprecated in favor of 'block' |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''net''' || Adds the necessary modules for a network device. For pcmcia net devices please add pcmcia hook too. || Loads network modules. You will need the '''udev''' or '''modload''' hook unless you specify the needed modules manually (see MODULES section below). See the section [[Configuring_mkinitcpio#Customizing_the_kernel_command_line|Customizing the kernel command line]] for further configuration. | | | '''fw''' || This hook is deprecated in favor of 'block' |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''pcmcia''' || Adds the necessary modules for pcmcia devices. You need to have pcmciautils installed to use this.|| Loads pcmcia modules. You will need the '''udev''' or '''modload''' hook unless you specify the needed modules manually (see MODULES section below). | | | '''block''' || This hook loads the necessary modules for most block devices using pata, sata, scsi, firewire, usb, or mmc. Detection will take place at runtime. To minimize the modules in the image, add the autodetect hook too. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''dsdt''' || Loads a custom acpi dsdt file during boot. Place your custom dsdt file for inclusion at /lib/initcpio/custom.dsdt || The custom dsdt file is automatically used by the kernel if it is present in initramfs. | | | '''usbinput''' || This hook is deprecated in favor of 'keyboard' |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''filesystems''' || This includes necessary filesystem modules into your image. This hook is necessary if you want to be able to boot || This will detect the filesystem type at runtime, load the module and pass it to kinit. NOTE: it will NOT detect reiser4, it must be added to modules list. | | | '''keyboard''' || This hook loads the necessary modules for keyboard devices. As a side-effect modules for some non-keyboard input devices might be added to, but this should not be relied on. Detection will take place at runtime. To minimize the modules in the image, add the autodetect hook too. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''lvm2''' || Adds the device mapper kernel module and the lvm tool to the image. You need to have the lvm2 package installed to use this. || Enables all lvm2 volume groups. This is necessary if you have your root filesystem on lvm. | | | '''filesystems''' || This hook adds filesystems modules to the image. If you would like to minimize the modules installed in the image, add the autodetect hook too. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''raid''' || Adds the modules and mdassamble for a software raid setup. You need to have mdadm installed to use this.|| Loads the necessary modules for software raid devices, and assembles the raid devices when run. See the section [[Configuring_mkinitcpio#Customizing_the_kernel_command_line|Customizing the kernel command line]] for further configuration. | | | '''lvm2''' || This hook enables LVM2 volumes in initramfs. Do pacman -S lvm2 before. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''encrypt''' || Adds the dm-crypt kernel module and the cryptsetup tool to the image. You need to have the cryptsetup package installed to use this. || Detects and unlocks an encrypted root partition. See the section [[Configuring_mkinitcpio#Customizing_the_kernel_command_line|Customizing the kernel command line]] for further configuration. | | | '''sd-lvm2''' || This hook enables LVM2 volumes in systemd-based initramfs. Do pacman -S lvm2 before. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''resume''' || || This tries to resume from "suspend to disk" state. Works with both swsusp and [[Suspend to Disk|suspend2]]. See the section [[Configuring_mkinitcpio#Customizing_the_kernel_command_line|Customizing the kernel command line]] for further configuration. | | | '''mdadm''' || This hook loads the necessary modules for any raid root device, and assembles the raid device when run. If arrays are defined in /etc/mdadm.conf, the file will be used instead of command line assembling. Do pacman -S mdadm before. Please see mkinitcpio -H mdadm |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''firmware''' || Adds /lib/firmware files. || Loads firmware. You will need the '''udev''' hook to get firmware loaded. | | | '''dmraid''' || This hook loads the necessary modules for a dmraid root device. Do pacman -S dmraid before. |
| |- | | |- |
| | '''keymap''' || Adds keymap and consolefonts from rc.conf. || Loads the specified keymap and consolefont from rc.conf during early userspace. | | | '''encrypt''' || This hook allows for an encrypted root device. Users should specify the device to be unlocked using 'cryptdevice=device:dmname' on the kernel command line, where 'device' is the path to the raw device, and 'dmname' is the name given to the device after unlocking, and will be available as /dev/mapper/dmname. Do pacman -S cryptsetup before. Please see mkinitcpio -H encrypt |
| | |- |
| | | '''sd-encrypt''' || This hook allows for an encrypted root device. Users should specify the device to be unlocked using 'cryptdevice=device:dmname' on the kernel command line, where 'device' is the path to the raw device, and 'dmname' is the name given to the device after unlocking, and will be available as /dev/mapper/dmname.

| | | '''resume''' || This hook initializes support for resuming from Disk. Supports swsusp and suspend2. |
| | |- |
| | | '''fschk''' || This hook provides fsck and filesystem specific helpers to perform an fsck operation on the root device prior to mounting. If the autodetect hook is used, only the fsck helper specific to your filesystem will be added to the image. It is highly recommended that if you include this hook that you also include any necessary modules to ensure your keyboard will work in early userspace. Please see mkinitcpio -H fsck |
| | |- |
| | | '''consolefont''' || This hook loads consolefont specified in vconsole.conf during early userspace. |
| | |- |
| | | '''sd-vconsole''' || This hook adds the keymap(s) and font specified in vconsole.conf to the image and loads them during early userspace. |

|
| === Examples ===
| | Beispiele: |
|
| |
|
| This configuration will work for most users with a standard setup:
| | Diese Konfiguration sollte für die meisten Benutzer funktionieren: |
|
| |
|
| HOOKS="base udev autodetect ide scsi sata filesystems" | | HOOKS=(base systemd autodetect modconf block filesystems sd-vconsole fsck) |
|
| |
|
| If you want to use the image on more than one machine, use this configuration:
| | Du kannst verschlüsselte Dateisysteme innerhalb von lvm nutzen: |
|
| |
|
| HOOKS="base udev ide scsi sata filesystems" | | HOOKS=(base autodetect modconf block lvm2 encrypt filesystems keyboard consolefont fsck) |
|
| |
|
| You can use encrypted volumes on top of lvm2 volume groups:
| | Du kannst verschlüsselte Dateisysteme innerhalb von lvm nutzen, wenn systemd im Einsatz ist: |
|
| |
|
| HOOKS="base udev autodetect ide scsi sata lvm2 encrypt filesystems" | | HOOKS=(base systemd autodetect modconf block sd-lvm2 sd-encrypt filesystems sd-vconsole fsck) |
|
| |
|
| == Configuring the MODULES == | | === COMPRESSION === |
| | # Use this to compress the initramfs image. By default, gzip compression is used. Use 'cat' to create an uncompressed image. |
| | COMPRESSION=(xz) |
| | === COMPRESSION_OPTIONS === |
| | # Additional options for the compressor |
| | COMPRESSION_OPTIONS=(-9) |
|
| |
|
| You can use the MODULES in the configuration file to load a module before anything else is done. For example, if you don't want to use '''udev''' or '''modload''', you can add all necessary modules manually and make booting faster:
| | == Erstellen des Images == |
|
| |
|
| MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs"
| | Erstelle das Image mit folgendem Befehl: |
| HOOKS="base autodetect ide filesystems"
| |
|
| |
|
| NOTE: if you're using '''reiser4''', you MUST add it to the modules list.
| | # mkinitcpio -p linux |
|
| |
|
| == Configuring the BINARIES and FILES == | | == Extrahieren des Images == |
|
| |
|
| These options allow you to add files to the image. The only difference is that BINARIES checks binaries and libraries for dependencies, while FILES simply adds the file.
| | Wenn du wissen möchtest, was sich innerhalb des initrd-Abbildes befindet, kann du es auspacken und in den enthaltenen Dateien herumstöbern. |
|
| |
|
| Examples:
| | Das initrd-Abbild ist ein 'SVR4 CPIO'-Archiv, das durch die Befehle ''find'' und ''bsdcpio'' erstellt wurde und optional durch ein vom Kernel verstandenes Komprimierungsschema komprimiert wurde: genauer gesagt gzip, bzip2, lzma, lzo oder xz. |
|
| |
|
| FILES="/etc/modprobe.conf"
| | mkinitcpio beinhaltet ein Werkzeug namens lsinitcpio, welches die Inhalte des initramfs-Abbildes anzeigt und extrahiert. |
|
| |
|
| BINARIES="/usr/bin/somefile"
| | Das Anzeigen der Dateien im Abbild geschieht durch: |
|
| |
|
| = Creating the image =
| | # lsinitcpio /boot/initramfs-linux.img |
|
| |
|
| Create the image with the following command:
| | Man kann sich auch eine Auflistung der wichtigen Teile des Abbildes anzeigen lassn: |
|
| |
|
| mkinitcpio -g /boot/kernel26.img | | # lsinitcpio -a /boot/initramfs-linux.img |
|
| |
|
| This will generate the image for the currently running kernel and save it at '''/boot/kernel26.img''', which is the location for '''kernel26''' package. Users of '''kernel26beyond''' should use the following instead:
| | Das Extrahieren aller Dateien in das aktuelle Verzeichnis: |
|
| |
|
| mkinitcpio -g /boot/kernel26beyond.img | | # lsinitcpio -x /boot/initramfs-linux.img |
|
| |
|
| If you are creating an image for a kernel other than the one you are currently running, add the kernel version to the command line:
| | == Kernelzeile anpassen == |
|
| |
|
| mkinitcpio -g /boot/kernel26.img -k 2.6.16-ARCH
| | Einige Optionen müssen in der Kernelzeile angegeben werden. Einige Mkinitcpio Hooks haben spezielle Optionen. Um diese soll es in diesem Abschnitt gehen. |
|
| |
|
| | Wenn du nicht weißt was die Kernelzeile ist, schau in die Dokumentationen von [[GRUB]] oder [[Syslinux]]. |
|
| |
|
| ''NOTE:'' The following may confuse some people. It is only intended to help create fallback images for people already running the current kernel. To create images for any kernel that is not currently running, you MUST use the -k parameter.
| | === Failsafe Modus === |
|
| |
|
| A fallback image should have been created when you installed '''kernel26''' or '''kernel26beyond''' but in case you want to re-generate it
| | Wenn du |
|
| |
|
| mkinitcpio -c /boot/mkinitcpio-kernel26.conf -g /boot/kernel26.img | | break=y |
| for beyond
| |
| mkinitcpio -c /boot/mkinitcpio-kernel26beyond.conf -g /boot/kernel26beyond.img
| |
| | |
| See '''mkinitcpio -h''' for more options.
| |
| | |
| Don't forget to add a new bootloader entry. Just make a copy of your old one and change the initrd to your new image. As long as mkinitcpio is beta, please always leave the old one intact, so that you can boot it if something goes wrong. You can use mkinitcpio with any kernel, so kernel26 and kernel26-beyond users are encouraged to try it.
| |
| | |
| = Customizing the kernel command line = | |
| | |
| Just like without initramfs, some options need to be passed on the kernel command line to configure your kernel, like the root device. Some of the mkinitcpio hooks have special options. These are discussed below.
| |
| | |
| If you don't know what a kernel command line is, please refer to the [[GRUB]] or [[Lilo]] documentation.
| |
|
| |
|
| == Entering failsafe mode ==
| | zur Kernelzeile hinzufügst, dann stoppt Init nach dem das Setup vollständig ist und du landest in einer ''dash'' shell. Diese kann genutzt werden um sich über den Erfolg des Vorgangs zu versichern. Wenn du dich ausloggst geht der normale Bootvorgang weiter. |
|
| |
|
| If you add the option
| | === Hooks deaktivieren === |
| break=y
| |
| to the kernel command line, init stops after the setup is completed and you are left with a ''dash'' shell. This can be used to verify that everything went fine. If you logout, normal boot continues.
| |
|
| |
|
| == Disabling hooks ==
| | Du kannst hooks deaktivieren indem du ''disablehooks'' zur Kernelzeile hinzufügst: |
| | |
| You can disable a hook at runtime by adding the ''disablehooks'' option to the kernel command line like this:
| |
|
| |
|
| disablehooks=hook1,hook2,hook2 | | disablehooks=hook1,hook2,hook2 |
|
| |
|
| for example
| | zum Beispiel |
|
| |
|
| disablehooks=resume | | disablehooks=resume |
|
| |
|
| == Blacklisting modules == | | === Module blacklisten === |
|
| |
|
| You can blacklist modules by adding the ''disablemodules'' option to the kernel command line like this:
| | Du kannst Module blacklisten indem du ''disablemodules'' zur Kernelzeile hinzufügst: |
|
| |
|
| disablemodules=mod1,mod2,mod3 | | disablemodules=mod1,mod2,mod3 |
|
| |
|
| for example
| | zum Beispiel |
|
| |
|
| disablemodules=ata_piix | | disablemodules=ata_piix |
|
| |
|
| '''THIS FEATURE IS AVAILABLE SINCE MKINITCPIO 0.5.1'''
| | [[Kategorie:Konfiguration]] |
| | |
| == Using raid ==
| |
| First add the raid hook to the HOOKS list in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
| |
| | |
| '''Kernel Parameters: '''
| |
| Specify all your md arrays with md= parameter: (only adding the raid array you're booting from is enough)
| |
| | |
| add the following to the kernel line in grub/menu.lst:
| |
| Example: md=0,/dev/sda3,/dev/sda4 md=1,/dev/hda1,/dev/hdb1
| |
| working example: kernel /vmlinuz26beyond root=/dev/md0 ro md=0,/dev/sda1,/dev/sdb1
| |
| This will setup 2 md arrays with persistent superblocks
| |
| | |
| '''Setup:'''
| |
| - for old raid arrays without persistent superblocks:
| |
| md=<md device no.>,<raid level>,<chunk size factor>,<fault level>,dev0,dev1
| |
| - for raid arrays with persistent superblocks:
| |
| md=<md device no.>,dev0,dev1,...,devn
| |
| - for, to assemble a partitionable array:
| |
| md=d<md device no.>,dev0,dev1,...,devn
| |
| | |
| '''Parameters:'''
| |
| - <md device no.> = the number of the md device:
| |
| 0 means md0, 1 means md1, ...
| |
| - <raid level> = -1 linear mode, 0 striped mode
| |
| other modes are only supported with persistent super block
| |
| - <chunk size factor> = (raid-0 and raid-1 only):
| |
| Set the chunk size as 4k << n.
| |
| - <fault level> = totally ignored
| |
| - <dev0-devn>: e.g. /dev/hda1,/dev/hdc1,/dev/sda1,/dev/sdb1
| |
| | |
| == Using net ==
| |
| | |
| '''Kernel Parameters:'''
| |
| | |
| '''ip='''
| |
| | |
| An interface spec can be either short form, which is just the name of
| |
| an interface (eth0 or whatever), or long form. The long form consists
| |
| of up to seven elements, separated by colons:
| |
|
| |
| ip=<client-ip>:<server-ip>:<gw-ip>:<netmask>:<hostname>:<device>:<autoconf>
| |
| nfsaddrs= is an alias to ip= and can be used too.
| |
| | |
| ''Parameter explanation:''
| |
| <client-ip> IP address of the client. If empty, the address will
| |
| either be determined by RARP/BOOTP/DHCP. What protocol
| |
| is used de- pends on the <autoconf> parameter. If this
| |
| parameter is not empty, autoconf will be used.
| |
|
| |
| <server-ip> IP address of the NFS server. If RARP is used to
| |
| determine the client address and this parameter is NOT
| |
| empty only replies from the specified server are
| |
| accepted. To use different RARP and NFS server,
| |
| specify your RARP server here (or leave it blank), and
| |
| specify your NFS server in the `nfsroot' parameter
| |
| (see above). If this entry is blank the address of the
| |
| server is used which answered the RARP/BOOTP/DHCP
| |
| request.
| |
|
| |
| <gw-ip> IP address of a gateway if the server is on a different
| |
| subnet. If this entry is empty no gateway is used and the
| |
| server is assumed to be on the local network, unless a
| |
| value has been received by BOOTP/DHCP.
| |
|
| |
| <netmask> Netmask for local network interface. If this is empty,
| |
| the netmask is derived from the client IP address assuming
| |
| classful addressing, unless overridden in BOOTP/DHCP reply.
| |
|
| |
| <hostname> Name of the client. If empty, the client IP address is
| |
| used in ASCII notation, or the value received by
| |
| BOOTP/DHCP.
| |
|
| |
| <device> Name of network device to use. If this is empty, all
| |
| devices are used for RARP/BOOTP/DHCP requests, and the
| |
| first one we receive a reply on is configured. If you
| |
| have only one device, you can safely leave this blank.
| |
|
| |
| <autoconf> Method to use for autoconfiguration. If this is either
| |
| 'rarp', 'bootp', or 'dhcp' the specified protocol is
| |
| used. If the value is 'both', 'all' or empty, all
| |
| protocols are used. 'off', 'static' or 'none' means
| |
| no autoconfiguration.
| |
| ''Examples:''
| |
| ip=127.0.0.1:::::lo:none --> Enable the loopback interface.
| |
| ip=192.168.1.1:::::eth2:none --> Enable static eth2 interface.
| |
| ip=:::::eth0:dhcp --> Enable dhcp protcol for eth0 configuration.
| |
| '''nfsroot='''
| |
| | |
| If the 'nfsroot' parameter is NOT given on the command line, the default
| |
| "/tftpboot/%s" will be used.
| |
| | |
| nfsroot=[<server-ip>:]<root-dir>[,<nfs-options>]
| |
| | |
| ''Parameter explanation:''
| |
| | |
| <server-ip> Specifies the IP address of the NFS server. If this field
| |
| is not given, the default address as determined by the
| |
| `ip' variable (see below) is used. One use of this
| |
| parameter is for example to allow using different servers
| |
| for RARP and NFS. Usually you can leave this blank.
| |
|
| |
| <root-dir> Name of the directory on the server to mount as root. If
| |
| there is a "%s" token in the string, the token will be
| |
| replaced by the ASCII-representation of the client's IP
| |
| address.
| |
|
| |
| <nfs-options> Standard NFS options. All options are separated by commas.
| |
| If the options field is not given, the following defaults
| |
| will be used:
| |
| port = as given by server portmap daemon
| |
| rsize = 1024
| |
| wsize = 1024
| |
| timeo = 7
| |
| retrans = 3
| |
| acregmin = 3
| |
| acregmax = 60
| |
| acdirmin = 30
| |
| acdirmax = 60
| |
| flags = hard, nointr, noposix, cto, ac
| |
| | |
| '''root=/dev/nfs'''
| |
| If you don't use nfsroot= parameter you need to set root=/dev/nfs
| |
| to boot from a nfs root by autoconfiguration.
| |
| | |
| == Using lvm ==
| |
| | |
| If your root device is on lvm, you have to add the '''lvm2''' hook. You have to pass your root device on the kernel command line in the format
| |
| | |
| root=/dev/mapper/<volume group name>-<logical volume name>
| |
| | |
| for exmaple
| |
| | |
| root=/dev/mapper/myvg-root
| |
| | |
| == Using encrypted root ==
| |
| | |
| If your root volume is encrypted, you need to add the '''encrypt''' hook. Then specify your root device on the kernel command line, just as if it was unencrypted, for example
| |
| | |
| root=/dev/sda5
| |
| | |
| for an encrypted partition on an sata or scsi disk or
| |
| | |
| root=/dev/mapper/myvg-root
| |
| | |
| for an encrypted lvm volume. The root device will be automatically changed to ''/dev/mapper/root''.
| |
| | |
| === Using LUKS volumes ===
| |
| | |
| If you use LUKS for hard disk encryption, the init script will detect the encryption automatically if the '''encrypt''' hook is enabled. It will then ask for a passphrase and try to unlock the volume.
| |
| | |
| === Using legacy cryptsetup volumes ===
| |
| | |
| If you are using a legacy cryptsetup volume, you have to specify all cryptsetup options necessary to unlock it on the kernel command line. The option format is
| |
| | |
| crypto=hash:cipher:keysize:offset:skip
| |
| | |
| representing cryptsetup's --hash, --cipher, --keysize, --offset and --skip options. If you omit an option, cryptsetup's default value is used, so you can just specify
| |
| | |
| crypto=::::
| |
| | |
| if you created your volume with the default settings.
| |
| | |
| '''NOTE:''' For technical reasons, it is not possible to verify the correctness of your passphrase with legacy cryptsetup volumes. If you typed it wrong, mounting will simply fail. It is recommended that you use LUKS instead.
| |
| | |
| === Using loop-aes volumes ===
| |
| | |
| '''mkinitcpio''' does not support loop-aes yet.
| |
| | |
| == Using Suspend to Disk ==
| |
| | |
| If you want to use suspend to disk, you have to add the '''resume''' hook.
| |
| | |
| === swsusp ===
| |
| | |
| ''TODO''
| |
| | |
| === µswsusp ===
| |
| | |
| µswsusp is not supported yet.
| |
| | |
| === suspend2 ===
| |
| | |
| If you are using [[Suspend to Disk|suspend2]], you have to specify the ''resume2'' kernel commandline option. If you are using the swap writer, use
| |
| | |
| resume2=swap:/dev/hda3
| |
| | |
| where ''/dev/hda3'' is your swap partition. If you want to use the filewriter, use
| |
| | |
| resume2=file:/dev/hda2:0x123456
| |
| | |
| where ''/dev/hda2'' is the partition where the suspend2 image is stored (most likely the root partition) and ''0x123456'' is the file offset. You can get the exact value with the commands
| |
| | |
| echo "/suspend2_file" > /proc/suspend2/filewriter_target
| |
| cat /proc/suspend2/resume2
| |
| | |
| where /suspend2_file is the path to your suspend image file. This - of course - works for lvm volumes as well. You can also use a suspend file on an encrypted root partition with the option
| |
| | |
| resume2=file:/dev/mapper/root:0x123456
| |
| | |
| where ''0x123456'' is the offset again. Resuming from an encrypted swap partition is not supported.
| |
| | |
| == Example bootloader configuration files ==
| |
| | |
| If you use the beyond kernel, the filenames are ''kernel26beyond.img'' and ''kernel26beyond-fallback.img'' instead of ''kernel26.img'' and ''kernel26-fallback.img'', respectively. Also, change "vmlinuz26" to "vmlinuz26beyond".
| |
| | |
| === GRUB ===

| == piix ide controllers and beyond kernel ==
| |
| === Problem ===
| |
| If you are having problems getting mkinitcpio to detect your hard drive giving errors akin to "Can't find device dev(0,0)" when switching to kinit, then this could be because of a conflict that the ata_piix and piix drivers have. The beyond kernel has some libata patches that cause ata_piix to *conflict* with piix.
| |
| | |
| === Solution ===
| |
| Edit /etc/mkinitcpio.conf to only have ide or sata or scsi depending on what your system actually needs to boot.

mkinitcpio ist die nächste Generation der initramfs-Erstellung. Es hat viele Vorteile gegenüber den alten Skripten mkinitrd und mkinitramfs.
- Es nutzt klibc und kinit der Linux-Entwickler, welches eine kleine und leichtgewichtige Basis bereitstellt, um Programme sehr früh im userspace laufen zu lassen.
- Es kann mittels udev die Hardware zur Laufzeit erkennen, so dass nur die wirklich nötigen Module geladen werden.
- Die hook-basierenden init-Scripte sind leicht erweiterbar und können auch durch externe Pakete genutzt werden.
- Es unterstützt bereits lvm2, dm-crypt (legacy und luks volumes), raid, swsusp und suspend2 Fortsetzen und Starten von usb Datenträgern.
- Viele Funktionen können von der Kernel-Kommandozeile konfiguriert werden ohne das Image neu erstellen zu müssen.
- Mit dem mkinitcpio-Skript ist es möglich, das Image in den Kernel zu integrieren.
mkinitcpio wurde von phrakture und tpowa mit Hilfe aus der Community entwickelt.
Installation
Das Programm ist als
mkinitcpio
in core
verfügbar, und kann von dort
mittels Pacman
installiert werden.
pacman -S mkinitcpio
mkinitcpio ist Bestandteil jeder Arch Linux Installation.
Konfiguration
Die Konfigurationsdatei lautet /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
.
MODULES
Mit dem MODULES-Eintrag können Module explizit dem Image hinzugefügt werden.
Beispiel: Bei Verwendung des nouveau Treiber wird bereits die Konsole beim Starten diesen verwenden.
MODULES=(nouveau)
BINARIES und FILES
Mit diesen Optionen können Dateien dem Abbild hinzugefügt werden. Der einzige Unterschied zwischen BINARIES und FILES ist, dass BINARIES die Bibliotheken nach Abhängigkeiten durchsucht, während FILES nur Dateien hinzufügt.
HOOKS
Dies ist der wichtigste Teil der mkinitcpio Konfiguration. Diese Zeile enthält alle HOOKS, welche während der Imageerstellung oder zur Laufzeit ausgeführt werden. Hierbei muss die Reihenfolge beachtet werden:
HOOKS=(foo1 foo2 bar1 bar2)
Am besten man prüft anhand des eigenen Systems, welche HOOKS aktuell verfügbar sind. Zusätzlich wird angezeigt, welche als veraltet gelten, und welche zukünftig verwendet werden sollen.
mkinitcpio -L
Für jeden gelisteten HOOK gibt es eine Zusatzinfo.
mkinitcpio -H base
Verfügbare HOOKS
Hook |
Information
|
base |
This hook provides crucial runtime necessities for booting. DO NOT remove this hook unless you know what you're doing.
|
udev |
This hook will use udev to create your root device node and detect the needed modules for your root device. It is also required for firmware loading in initramfs. It is recommended to use this hook.
|
microcode |
This hook adds early microcode update files for Intel and AMD processors. If /boot/amd-ucode.img or /boot/intel-ucode.img exist, they are included in the initcpio. If not, the individual microcode files in /lib/firmware/ are included if they exist. If the autodetect hook runs before this hook, it will only add early microcode update files for the processor of the system the image is built on.
|
systemd |
This will install a basic systemd setup in your initramfs, and is meant to replace the 'base', 'usr', 'udev' and 'timestamp' hooks. Other hooks with runtime components will need to be ported, and will not work as intended. You also may wish to still include the 'base' hook (before this hook) to ensure that a rescue shell exists on your initramfs.
|
modconf |
This hook installs modprobe configuration files from /etc/modprobe.d and /usr/lib/modprobe.d.
|
usr |
This provides a support for mounting /usr via a late running hook. No configuration is needed, as the mount options will be pulled directly from the fstab on the real root device.
|
autodetect |
This hook shrinks your initramfs to a smaller size by autodetecting the needed modules. Be sure to verify included modules are correct and none are missing. This hook must be run before other subsystem hooks in order to take advantage of auto-detection. Any hooks placed before 'autodetect' will be installed in full.
|
sata |
This hook is deprecated in favor of 'block'
|
scsi |
This hook is deprecated in favor of 'block'
|
usb |
This hook is deprecated in favor of 'block'
|
fw |
This hook is deprecated in favor of 'block'
|
block |
This hook loads the necessary modules for most block devices using pata, sata, scsi, firewire, usb, or mmc. Detection will take place at runtime. To minimize the modules in the image, add the autodetect hook too.
|
usbinput |
This hook is deprecated in favor of 'keyboard'
|
keyboard |
This hook loads the necessary modules for keyboard devices. As a side-effect modules for some non-keyboard input devices might be added to, but this should not be relied on. Detection will take place at runtime. To minimize the modules in the image, add the autodetect hook too.
|
filesystems |
This hook adds filesystems modules to the image. If you would like to minimize the modules installed in the image, add the autodetect hook too.
|
lvm2 |
This hook enables LVM2 volumes in initramfs. Do pacman -S lvm2 before.
|
sd-lvm2 |
This hook enables LVM2 volumes in systemd-based initramfs. Do pacman -S lvm2 before.
|
mdadm |
This hook loads the necessary modules for any raid root device, and assembles the raid device when run. If arrays are defined in /etc/mdadm.conf, the file will be used instead of command line assembling. Do pacman -S mdadm before. Please see mkinitcpio -H mdadm
|
dmraid |
This hook loads the necessary modules for a dmraid root device. Do pacman -S dmraid before.
|
encrypt |
This hook allows for an encrypted root device. Users should specify the device to be unlocked using 'cryptdevice=device:dmname' on the kernel command line, where 'device' is the path to the raw device, and 'dmname' is the name given to the device after unlocking, and will be available as /dev/mapper/dmname. Do pacman -S cryptsetup before. Please see mkinitcpio -H encrypt
|
sd-encrypt |
This hook allows for an encrypted root device. Users should specify the device to be unlocked using 'cryptdevice=device:dmname' on the kernel command line, where 'device' is the path to the raw device, and 'dmname' is the name given to the device after unlocking, and will be available as /dev/mapper/dmname. Do pacman -S cryptsetup before. Please see mkinitcpio -H sd-encrypt
|
resume |
This hook initializes support for resuming from Disk. Supports swsusp and suspend2.
|
fschk |
This hook provides fsck and filesystem specific helpers to perform an fsck operation on the root device prior to mounting. If the autodetect hook is used, only the fsck helper specific to your filesystem will be added to the image. It is highly recommended that if you include this hook that you also include any necessary modules to ensure your keyboard will work in early userspace. Please see mkinitcpio -H fsck
|
consolefont |
This hook loads consolefont specified in vconsole.conf during early userspace.
|
sd-vconsole |
This hook adds the keymap(s) and font specified in vconsole.conf to the image and loads them during early userspace.
|
Beispiele:
Diese Konfiguration sollte für die meisten Benutzer funktionieren:
HOOKS=(base systemd autodetect modconf block filesystems sd-vconsole fsck)
Du kannst verschlüsselte Dateisysteme innerhalb von lvm nutzen:
HOOKS=(base autodetect modconf block lvm2 encrypt filesystems keyboard consolefont fsck)
Du kannst verschlüsselte Dateisysteme innerhalb von lvm nutzen, wenn systemd im Einsatz ist:
HOOKS=(base systemd autodetect modconf block sd-lvm2 sd-encrypt filesystems sd-vconsole fsck)
COMPRESSION
# Use this to compress the initramfs image. By default, gzip compression is used. Use 'cat' to create an uncompressed image.
COMPRESSION=(xz)
COMPRESSION_OPTIONS
# Additional options for the compressor
COMPRESSION_OPTIONS=(-9)
Erstellen des Images
Erstelle das Image mit folgendem Befehl:
# mkinitcpio -p linux
Wenn du wissen möchtest, was sich innerhalb des initrd-Abbildes befindet, kann du es auspacken und in den enthaltenen Dateien herumstöbern.
Das initrd-Abbild ist ein 'SVR4 CPIO'-Archiv, das durch die Befehle find und bsdcpio erstellt wurde und optional durch ein vom Kernel verstandenes Komprimierungsschema komprimiert wurde: genauer gesagt gzip, bzip2, lzma, lzo oder xz.
mkinitcpio beinhaltet ein Werkzeug namens lsinitcpio, welches die Inhalte des initramfs-Abbildes anzeigt und extrahiert.
Das Anzeigen der Dateien im Abbild geschieht durch:
# lsinitcpio /boot/initramfs-linux.img
Man kann sich auch eine Auflistung der wichtigen Teile des Abbildes anzeigen lassn:
# lsinitcpio -a /boot/initramfs-linux.img
Das Extrahieren aller Dateien in das aktuelle Verzeichnis:
# lsinitcpio -x /boot/initramfs-linux.img
Kernelzeile anpassen
Einige Optionen müssen in der Kernelzeile angegeben werden. Einige Mkinitcpio Hooks haben spezielle Optionen. Um diese soll es in diesem Abschnitt gehen.
Wenn du nicht weißt was die Kernelzeile ist, schau in die Dokumentationen von GRUB oder Syslinux.
Failsafe Modus
Wenn du
break=y
zur Kernelzeile hinzufügst, dann stoppt Init nach dem das Setup vollständig ist und du landest in einer dash shell. Diese kann genutzt werden um sich über den Erfolg des Vorgangs zu versichern. Wenn du dich ausloggst geht der normale Bootvorgang weiter.
Hooks deaktivieren
Du kannst hooks deaktivieren indem du disablehooks zur Kernelzeile hinzufügst:
disablehooks=hook1,hook2,hook2
zum Beispiel
disablehooks=resume
Module blacklisten
Du kannst Module blacklisten indem du disablemodules zur Kernelzeile hinzufügst:
disablemodules=mod1,mod2,mod3
zum Beispiel
disablemodules=ata_piix
