cloud-initramfs-tools 0.27ubuntu1.3 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
cloud-initramfs-tools (0.27ubuntu1.3) xenial; urgency=medium
* sync with upstream at 0.32ubuntu1 (revno 129)
* overlayroot: fix overlayroot=crypt with newer initramfs-tools
(LP: #1634310)
* overlayroot: support random seed from systemd systemd-random-seed.service
* cloud-initramfs-dyn-netconf: Further adjustments to support
IPV6 and the new DEVICE6 and net6-DEVICE.conf files. (LP: #1621615)
* overlayroot: support 'overlay' filesystem explicitly rather than
relying on ubuntu specific kernel module 'overlayfs'. (LP: #1493188)
* overlayroot: write debug to /run/initramfs not /dev/.initramfs but
support writing to /dev/.initramfs if that is all there is. (LP: #1485752)
* overlayroot: fix overlayroot if recurse=0 was not provided.
This fuctionality was lost since workdir support was added. (LP: #1619459)

Binary packages built by this source
- cloud-initramfs-copymods: copy initramfs modules into root filesystem for later use
When booting with an external-to-root kernel and initramfs, you need
to ensure that /lib/modules contains any necessary modules not already
loaded.
.
This package arranges for the modules in the initramfs to be placed
into /lib/modules after the switchroot is done.
- cloud-initramfs-dyn-netconf: write a network interface file in /run for BOOTIF
This package provides an initramfs module that will write a simple
network interfaces formated file to /run/network/interfaces with
entries for any devices that were configured during initramfs.
- cloud-initramfs-growroot: automatically resize the root partition on first boot
This package adds functionality to an initramfs built by initramfs-tools.
When installed, the initramfs will repartition a disk to make the
root volume consume all space that follows it.
.
You most likely do not want this package unless you know what you are
doing. It is primarily interesting in a virtualized environment when
a disk can provisioned with a size larger than its original size.
In this case, with this package installed, you can automatically use
the new space without requiring a reboot to re-read the partition table.
- cloud-initramfs-rescuevol: boot off a rescue volume rather than root filesystem
This package adds functionality to an initramfs built by initramfs-tools.
When installed the initramfs will check to see if any partitions
with a label of 'RESCUE_VOL' are attached. If such a volume is attached,
it will boot off that volume rather than the root volume.
.
This is useful in a cloud environment, when the user is able to attach
and detach volumes to a running system, but has no other mechanism
for interupting of fixing a failed boot. It is analogous to inserting
a rescue CD into a system to recover from failure.
- overlayroot: use an overlayfs on top of a read-only root filesystem
This package adds functionality to an initramfs built by initramfs-tools.
When installed and configured, the initramfs will mount an overlayfs
filesystem on top of a read-only root volume.
.
The changes can be written to a in-memory temporary filesystem, a
filesystem on an existing block device, or a dmcrypt encrypted block
device.
