Copy all of the necessary parts for a Fedora based dhclient to work. This includes a number of network scripts. Also grab the ip command supplied by the iproute package, the busybox "ip addr" command was missing the valid_lft and preferred_lft options. This will allow the dhcp to work in the ramdisk instead of getting passed the PXE net config. Related-Bug: #1417026 Change-Id: I8feee9a740855dab7b47162c5727bf91db77fcc6
ramdisk
This is the ramdisk element.
Almost any user building a ramdisk will want to include this in their build, as it triggers many of the vital functionality from the basic diskimage-builder libraries (such as init script aggregation, busybox population, etc).
An example of when one might want to use this toolchain to build a ramdisk would be the initial deployment of baremetal nodes in a TripleO setup. Various tools and scripts need to be injected into a ramdisk that will fetch and apply a machine image to local disks. That tooling/scripting customisation can be easily applied in a repeatable and automatable way, using this element.
NOTE: ramdisks require 1GB minimum memory on the machines they are booting.
See the top-level README.md of the project, for more information about the mechanisms available to a ramdisk element.
