I used the online image generator to make a pxe initrd that works great.
However, I'm trying to setup a script so the hard drives will be partitioned initially with parted.
I'm trying to use makeImage --merge with the existing initrd to put parted into my initrd image, but something weird is going on.
The initrd I download from the image generator on the website is 822172 in size.
Then I run the following:
./makeImage -i initrd -k ../linux26 --merge /bin/parted=/usr/sbin/parted
and it reports:
ignoring '/lib/modules/2.6.14.4udpcast' (lstat failed) Kversion=2.6.14.4udpcast Using ramdisk 01:00
then the initrd is 468683
It doesn't seem to be injecting the file into the existing initrd, but rather rebuilding it from the template.
Is there something I'm missing on this?
I plan on using merge to also add a udpsender.pre, but I think it'll do the same until I get this issue resolved.
Thanks for your help.
