debirf

build a kernel and initrd to run Debian from RAM

Description

debirf (DEBian on Initial Ram Filesystem) is a set of tools designed to create and prepare a kernel and initial ram filesystem that can run a full-blown Debian environment entirely from RAM.

The kernel and initramfs pair created by debirf can be used for a myriad of purposes, from quick-and-easy system repair to diskless thin clients. The kernel and initrd can be placed in your system boot partition, burnt to read-only media, or supplied by a netboot server.

The debirf tools use a module architecture which allows you to customize debirf for any possible purpose by specifying what components are included in the generated image.
