I need to do custom installations of SuSE Linux 8.2 on industry box
computers without Floppy or CDROM, using only the PXE network boot
support provided by the BIOS and GRUB.
The toughest part seems to be to get the initial ramdisk (initrd)
populated and running, and I can't seem to find enough valid
information on this subject. I have adapted /sbin/mk_initrd, but
I'm probably doing something wrong there.
I am not quite sure if this mailing list is the right place to ask
for help regarding ramdisk usage. If it is not, please point me to
the right list.
Thank you.
