    [PATCH] Select cpio_list or source directory for initramfs image · 187ada2d
    Martin Schlemmer authored
    Attached is a patch that adds CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE, enabling you to
    either specify a file as cpio_list, or a directory to generate a list from.
    
    It depreciate the INITRAMFS_LIST environment variable introduced not long
    ago.
    
    There are some issues (suggestions/patches welcome) that I am not
    sure about:
    1) I put the menu entry under block devices, but I am not sure if
       this is the correct location?
    2) There might be a better (or more correct) way to do this with
       kbuild?
    3) Variable names and especially help text needs some love.
    4) I am not sure if I am duplicating work in progress?
