Subject: [PATCH] defaultenv: boot/net: Boot initramfs from tftp if present
Date: Mon,  2 Nov 2015 12:49:01 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1446464941-22009-1-git-send-email-mpa@pengutronix.de> (raw)

Use an 'initrd' file if it exists instead of nfsroot. This offers the
possibility to quickly boot complete filesystems as initramfs without
the need to flash a SD-card or similar. If the initrd does not exist,
it uses the default nfsroot mechanism.
