 Posted: Thu Dec 03, 2020 11:32 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] genkernel init: "run" before commands |
 |
|
Hi,
I'm trying to edit genkernel's init script. And I wonder why most its commands are "prefixed" with run:
| Code: | run umount "${NEW_ROOT}"
run rm -rf "${NEW_ROOT}/*"
run mkdir /union_changes |
Is it some mandatory syntax or what?
I searched for a bash command "run" - nothing; for "run()" function in genkernel's scripts - nothing; in the web also...
EDIT
I found it:
https://github.com/gentoo/genkernel/blob/369cfa98f72675a285ec98439e9054ab57b234c9/defaults/initrd.scripts#L989

Yup, I've been thinking it would be some sort of a wrapper that provides consistent output formatting.
I've done a very similar thing in my own custom initramfs. Good stuff, makes early boot log much easier to read. |
