Hello Jupiter, I actually continued this topic initiated by Moritz, to find out how you and me and somebody else also can build the yocto build system with bundled rescue kernel into the rootfs. My target architecture I am playing with is armv7 A8 (BBB), since I am experimenting with it. I actua

Hello Scott (Rifenbark), Could you, please, document somewhere (YOCTO-Mega-Manual for example) this topic (booting to YOCTO initramfs rescue shell), as we are discussing it? It would be very beneficial to YOCTO WWW audience, don't you agree? Thank you, Zoran ___ On Fri, Jul 12, 2019 at 10:1

Re: [yocto] Can't boot to initramfs

Hello Zoran, Jupiter and list The configuration you sent seems to be correct. As I already said initramfs seems overly complicated in yocto. the most important thing to note is that 2 kernel images are created, one is called bzImage (in my case) an the other bzImage-initramfs. However only the b

Re: [yocto] Can't boot to initramfs

Hello Moritz, I need here some help from you. I'll try to reconstruct the parts of the local.conf you are using, so I (and Jupiter) can understand what should we do to also bundle kernel image with initramfs, to end up in Dracut/rescue shell. Here is what I anticipate after reading several YOCTO

Re: [yocto] Can't boot to initramfs

Hey, So I have proceeded a tiny bit. What I did was to copy the core-image-minimal-initramfs.cpio.gz to my /boot partition and boot using (EFI grub): linux /bzimage initrd /initramfs.cpio.gz This way the boot process starts and at some point it says "can't find rootfs.img, dropping to a shell".

Hello, I currently try to deploy a single rootfs update mechanism for my embedded device. I can't boot to initramfs using either "break" or "break=premount" (without quotes...). I tried this in systemd-boot and grub-efi (always efi boot) but the boot process just continues normally. If I insert at
