This allows you to do all sorts + of wild and crazy things with your Linux system and is far more + powerful than 'chroot'. + + Note: This is for initrd in linux 2.4. Under initramfs (introduced + in linux 2.6) use switch_root instead. + +config RDATE + bool "rdate" + default n + help + The rdate utility allows you to synchronize the date and time of your + system clock with the date and time of a remote networked system using + the RFC868 protocol, which is built into the inetd daemon on most + systems. + +config RDEV + bool "rdev" + default n + help + Print the device node associated with the filesystem mounted at '/'. + +config READPROFILE + bool "readprofile" + default n + help + This allows you to parse /proc/profile for basic profiling. + +config RTCWAKE + bool "rtcwake" + default n + help + Enter a system sleep state until specified wakeup time. + +config SCRIPT + bool "script" + default n + help + The script makes typescript of terminal session. + +config SCRIPTREPLAY + bool "scriptreplay" + default n + help + This program replays a typescript, using timing information + given by script -t. + +config SETARCH + bool "setarch" + default n + help + The linux32 utility is used to create a 32bit environment for the + specified program (usually a shell).

Under initramfs, you have to use this instead of + pivot_root. (Stop reading here if you don't care why.) + + Booting with initramfs extracts a gzipped cpio archive into rootfs + (which is a variant of ramfs/tmpfs). Because rootfs can't be moved + or unmounted*, pivot_root will not work from initramfs.

That's why. + +config UMOUNT + bool "umount" + default n + help + When you want to remove a mounted filesystem from its current mount + point, for example when you are shutting down the system, the + 'umount' utility is the tool to use.

The umount command will also free that loopback + device. + + You can still use the 'losetup' utility (to manually associate files + with loop devices) if you need to do something advanced, such as + specify an offset or cryptographic options to the loopback device. + (If you don't want umount to free the loop device, use "umount -D".) + +config FEATURE_MOUNT_LOOP_CREATE + bool "Create new loopback devices if needed" + default n + depends on FEATURE_MOUNT_LOOP + help + Linux kernels >= 2.6.24 support unlimited loopback devices.

These days, the kernel exports + the list of currently mounted partitions in "/proc/mounts", rendering + the old mtab file obsolete. (In modern systems, /etc/mtab should be + a symlink to /proc/mounts.) + + The only reason to have mount maintain an /etc/mtab file itself is if + your stripped-down embedded system does not have a /proc directory. + If you must use this, keep in mind it's inherently brittle (for + example a mount under chroot won't update it), can't handle modern + features like separate per-process filesystem namespaces, requires + that your /etc directory be writeable, tends to get easily confused + by --bind or --move mounts, won't update if you rename a directory + that contains a mount point, and so on.
