Move /etc/default/grub to /etc/grub as it's owned by the sysadmin. Move /etc/grub.d to /etc/default/grub.d as it's owned by the system. Support /etc/grub's GRUB_CMDLINE_SORTIX in 10_sortix. Remove the old /etc/grub.d/10_sortix.cache with a compatibility hook as it has moved to /etc/default/grub.d/10_sortix.cache.

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm update-initrd
|
|
.Op Fl \-sysmerge
|
|
.Op Fl \-sysroot Ns "=" Ns Ar sysroot
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm update-initrd
|
|
generates the
|
|
.Pa /boot/sortix.initrd
|
|
.Xr initrd 7
|
|
containing a minimal system that searches for the root filesystem and chain
|
|
boots it as described in
|
|
.Xr initrd 7
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr init 8 .
|
|
It contains an init system, fsck, filesystem drivers and configuration.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The produced minimal system contains copies of
|
|
.Xr fstab 5 ,
|
|
.Xr extfs 8 ,
|
|
.Xr fsck.ext2 8 ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr init 8 .
|
|
If any of those files are updated then the
|
|
.Xr initrd 7
|
|
should be regenerated by invoking
|
|
.Nm .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is written as a script so the initrd of the new system can produced even
|
|
across incompatible ABI changes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "12345678"
|
|
.It Fl \-sysmerge
|
|
Generate an
|
|
.Xr initrd 7
|
|
for the pending upgrade in
|
|
.Pa /sysmerge
|
|
inside the sysroot.
|
|
This must be used in combination with invoking the matching
|
|
.Pa /sysmerge/sbin/update-initrd
|
|
program directly for forward compatibility.
|
|
.It Fl \-sysroot Ns "=" Ns Ar sysroot
|
|
Rather than generating an
|
|
.Xr initrd 7
|
|
for the root filesystem, locate files in the
|
|
.Ar sysroot
|
|
directory instead and store the result as
|
|
.Ar sysroot Ns Pa /boot/sortix.initrd .
