SYNOPSIS
lsinitramfs
[
options]
<initramfsfile> [
<initramfsfile>]
DESCRIPTION
The
lsinitramfs
command lists the content of given initramfs images. It allows one to quickly check
the content of one (or multiple) specified initramfs files.
OPTIONS
- -h
-
Display usage information and exit.
- -l
-
Display long and more verbose listing of initramfs content.
USAGE EXAMPLES
List initramfs content of current running kernel:
lsinitramfs /boot/initrd.img-$(uname -r)
List content of two initramfs files in verbose mode:
lsinitramfs -l /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-grml64 /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.33-grml64
BUGS
lsinitramfs
cannot deal with multiple-segmented initramfs images, such as those created
when an early (uncompressed) initramfs with system firmware is prepended to
the regular compressed initrams, or when overlay data is appended to the
initramfs.
