  • Build Initramfs Rootless

    I'm very new to BSD in general, but I find it very fun and interesting!

    However, I need pointers to get started.

    I read a lot of FreeBSD and NetBSD documentation to get to the point of compiling my own kernels, but I don't think I ever read about the equivalent concept of Linux cpio/initramfs for BSD. My minimal images use a UFS filesystem.

    Here, after checking https://mfsbsd.vx.sk/ and https://github.com/mmatuska/mfsbsd/blob/master/scripts/mdini... I think mfsbsd is just a using tmpfs so it may not exactly the same thing as initramfs, that allows booting linux from a bzImage + initrd

    I'll keep searching, it's not super high priority at the moment, but it's something I'd like to do with (Free|Net)BSD.

    I suspect it depends on how much support and/or hand-holding you need from your hosting provider. I'd hesitate to run an unofficial build/image but I believe the alternative on DO is to use mfsbsd (a memory-file-system installer for FreeBSD) which is also an unofficial build/image.
  • Is there a way to load the FreeBSD installer to RAM?

    The common answer here is to use mfsbsd which puts all the installer's requirements onto a RAM disk so you should (in theory) be able to pull the install media and plug in other devices as needed

    I looked into this for a project a couple of years ago and ended up using mfsbsd instead.
