Title: Question: can I use the same file in a user initrd?
Post by: lid on September 11, 2014, 06:42:54 PM

Hi,

Here is what I want to do:

I have an user-defined initrd (call it 2ndinitrd) and I pxebooted it along with the core.gz. Now I would like to add more starting commands in bootlocal.sh to configure some applications.
I would rather not touch the original core.gz. So I wonder if it's possible to add another /opt/bootlocal.sh in the 2ndinitrd. Will this create any conflict with the original bootlocal.sh?

Well, your edited bootlocal.sh will overwrite the original in RAM. So no conflict. You can do that with any file.
But a bootlocal.sh from a user backup will overwrite it, too. Also /opt will be included in backup by default
