<title>Description</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
<command>kernel-install</command> is used to install and remove kernel and
|
|
initramfs images to and from <filename>/boot</filename>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><command>kernel-install</command> will execute the files
|
|
located in the directory <filename>/usr/lib/kernel/install.d/</filename>
|
|
and the local administration directory <filename>/etc/kernel/install.d/</filename>.
|
|
All files are collectively sorted and executed in lexical order, regardless of the directory in
|
|
which they live. However, files with identical filenames replace each other.
|
|
Files in <filename>/etc/kernel/install.d/</filename> take precedence over files with the same name
|
|
in <filename>/usr/lib/kernel/install.d/</filename>. This can be used to override a system-supplied
|
|
executables with a local file if needed; a symbolic link in <filename>/etc/kernel/install.d/</filename>
|
|
with the same name as an executable in <filename>/usr/lib/kernel/install.d/</filename>,
|
|
pointing to <filename>/dev/null</filename>, disables the executable entirely. Executables must have the
|
|
extension <literal>.install</literal>; other extensions are ignored.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>An executable should return <constant>0</constant> on success. It may also
|
|
return <constant>77</constant> to cause the whole operation to terminate
|
|
(executables later in lexical order will be skipped).</para>

<para><command>kernel-install</command> creates the directory
|
|
<filename>/boot/<replaceable>MACHINE-ID</replaceable>/<replaceable>KERNEL-VERSION</replaceable>/</filename>
|
|
and calls every executable
|
|
<filename>/usr/lib/kernel/install.d/*.install</filename> and
|
|
<filename>/etc/kernel/install.d/*.install</filename> with
|
|
the arguments
|

<programlisting>add <replaceable>KERNEL-VERSION</replaceable> <filename>/boot/<replaceable>MACHINE-ID</replaceable>/<replaceable>KERNEL-VERSION</replaceable>/</filename></programlisting>

<para>The kernel-install plugin <filename>50-depmod.install</filename> runs depmod for the <replaceable>KERNEL-VERSION</replaceable>.</para>

|
|
<para>The kernel-install plugin
|
|
<filename>90-loaderentry.install</filename> copies
|
|
<replaceable>KERNEL-IMAGE</replaceable> to
|
|
<filename>/boot/<replaceable>MACHINE-ID</replaceable>/<replaceable>KERNEL-VERSION</replaceable>/linux</filename>.
|
|
It also creates a boot loader entry according to the boot
|
|
loader specification in
|
|
<filename>/boot/loader/entries/<replaceable>MACHINE-ID</replaceable>-<replaceable>KERNEL-VERSION</replaceable>.conf</filename>.
|
|
The title of the entry is the
|
|
<replaceable>PRETTY_NAME</replaceable> parameter specified
|
|
in <filename>/etc/os-release</filename> or
|
|
<filename>/usr/lib/os-release</filename> (if the former is
|
|
missing), or "Linux
|
|
<replaceable>KERNEL-VERSION</replaceable>", if unset. If
|
|
the file <filename>initrd</filename> is found next to the
|
|
<filename>linux</filename> file, the initrd will be added to
|
|
the configuration.</para>
