We could do a one line notice that would say something like 'Found RAM disk '<binary-name>'.
Yes, we could do that indeed.
We could change it so that: - the binary named 'initrd' is the ram disk - the binary named 'loader' is the loader
I don't like this idea. Identifying binaries according to their name instead of their content is inferior. The names are just labels for the kernel to show in human-readable listings, but I don't like to assign programmatic meanings to arbitrary labels. Seriously, that reminds me of MS-DOS :-)
Replacing our default set of init binaries with a different set does not happen very often. In fact, the Genode/SPARTAN project is the first such occasion ever. Therefore I don't see a reason why we should dramatically change the way it is implemented.
But I'll try to improve on the kernel reporting. M.D. _______________________________________________ HelenOS-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.modry.cz/cgi-bin/listinfo/helenos-devel
