| Integrate the root filesystem generated by Buildroot as an |
| initramfs inside the kernel image. This integration will |
| take place automatically. |
| |
| A rootfs.cpio file will be generated in the images/ directory. |
| This is the archive that will be included in the kernel image. |
| The default rootfs compression set in the kernel configuration |
| is used, regardless of how buildroot's cpio archive is |
| configured. |
| |
| Note that enabling initramfs together with another filesystem |
| formats doesn't make sense: you would end up having two |
| identical root filesystems, one embedded inside the kernel |
| image, and one separately. |
