25 %description
26 Mkinitrd creates filesystem images for use as initial ramdisk (initrd)
27 images. These ramdisk images are often used to preload the block
28 device modules (SCSI or RAID) needed to access the root filesystem.
29
30 In other words, generic kernels can be built without drivers for any
31 SCSI adapters which load the SCSI driver as a module. Since the
32 kernel needs to read those modules, but in this case it isn't able to
33 address the SCSI adapter, an initial ramdisk is used. The initial
34 ramdisk is loaded by the operating system loader (normally LILO) and
35 is available to the kernel as soon as the ramdisk is loaded. The
36 ramdisk image loads the proper SCSI adapter and allows the kernel to
37 mount the root filesystem. The mkinitrd program creates such a
38 ramdisk using information found in the /etc/modules.conf file.
