Version 0.0.8 of yaird is now available at:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~ekonijn/yaird/yaird-0.0.8.tar.gz
Yaird is a proof of concept perl rewrite of mkinitrd. It aims to
reliably identify the necessary modules by using the same algorithms
as hotplug, and comes with a template system to to tune the tool for
different distributions and experiment with different image layouts.
It requires a 2.6 kernel with hotplug. There is a paper discussing it at:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~ekonijn/yaird/yaird.html
Summary of user visible changes:
* Implement NFS root support (TCP, UDP, v2), based on klibc code.
* Added manual page.
* Make debugging output and shell break-outs optional,
triggered by kernel option 'ydebug'.
* Minor template simplifications.
* Merge klibc-1.0.14 changes.
* A Debian package is available (Based on work by Steven Ihde)
