-o <file> Create gzipped initramfs file named <file> using
gen_init_cpio and gzip
-u <uid> User ID to map to user ID 0 (root).
- <uid> is only meaningful if <cpio_source>
- is a directory.
+ <uid> is only meaningful if <cpio_source> is a
+ directory. "squash" forces all files to uid 0.
-g <gid> Group ID to map to group ID 0 (root).
- <gid> is only meaningful if <cpio_source>
- is a directory.
+ <gid> is only meaningful if <cpio_source> is a
+ directory. "squash" forces all files to gid 0.
<cpio_source> File list or directory for cpio archive.
If <cpio_source> is a .cpio file it will be used
as direct input to initramfs.
