LSINITRAMFS(8)lsinitramfs manual LSINITRAMFS(8)NAMElsinitramfs - list content of an initramfs image
SYNOPSISlsinitramfs [options] <initramfsfile> [<initramfsfile>]
DESCRIPTION
The lsinitramfs command lists the content of given initramfs images. It
allows one to quickly check the content of one (or multiple) specified
initramfs files.
OPTIONS-h Display usage information and exit.
-l Display long and more verbose listing of initramfs content.
USAGE EXAMPLES
List initramfs content of current running kernel:
lsinitramfs /boot/initrd.img-$(uname -r)
List content of two initramfs files in verbose mode:
lsinitramfs-l /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-grml64 /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.33-grml64
BUGSlsinitramfs cannot deal with multiple-segmented initramfs images, such
as those created when an early (uncompressed) initramfs with system
firmware is prepended to the regular compressed initrams, or when over‐
lay data is appended to the initramfs.
