# mkinitfs This is the initramfs generator for Alpine Linux, including support for apk and Alpine Diskless boot. ## Dependencies To compile manually, you need to have the following build tools available: - make - gcc with musl and kernel-headers nlplug-findfs will link against the following libraries (runtime deps): - libkmod - libblkid (from util-linux) - libcryptsetup ## Installation Build mkinitfs via `make` and install it via `make install`. The installation honours the `DESTDIR` parameter to overwrite the sysroot path. For testing, its not necessary to install `mkinitfs` into your root file system. ## Tweaking The Makefile is kept slim and debuggable.
