I’m thinking about how to get the json.cfg configuration into the kernel.
Currently in a few situations like ISO or EC2 boot the kernel mounts the root
FS and gets it from there - assuming all is configured for that and it’s not
trivial and unneeded effort if no disk is required except to get the json.cfg
I’m wondering is it practical or a good (or bad) idea to be able to pass the
configuration in as an argument to the kernel load? Thoughts? Is it even
possible?
In some circumstances it’s a rather big hassle to have to have a root partition
available in an ext2 disk format. It would be easier if the json.cfg could just
go straight in to the kernel via arguments.
Well, sure, if someone tells me how to pass the config as an argument to
kernel load on EC2.
