Subject: What is e2initrd_helper?
Date: Wed, 11 Apr 2012 11:46:08 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F85A740.9080906@ubuntu.com> (raw)
I came across this program in e2fsprogs and it doesn't seem to have a
man page. What is its purpose? Looking at the code, it appears to
extract the fs type listed in the /etc/fstab of the root fs before it is
mounted, but why?
