9 This can be either a single cpio archive with a .cpio suffix or a
10 space-separated list of directories and files for building the
11 initramfs image. A cpio archive should contain a filesystem archive
12 to be used as an initramfs image. Directories should contain a
13 filesystem layout to be included in the initramfs image. Files
14 should contain entries according to the format described by the
15 "usr/gen_init_cpio" program in the kernel tree.
16
17 When multiple directories and files are specified then the
18 initramfs image will be the aggregate of all of them.

20 See <file:Documentation/early-userspace/README> for more details.

22 If you are not sure, leave it blank.

29 This setting is only meaningful if the INITRAMFS_SOURCE is
30 contains a directory. Setting this user ID (UID) to something
31 other than "0" will cause all files owned by that UID to be
32 owned by user root in the initial ramdisk image.
