A minimalist and powerfull initramfs for ZFS and gentoo.

• Cryptsetup (external header, offset, loop, and more...)
• GPG 2 with gpg-agent
• Full disk encryption (boot + main system)
• Custom hook
• External key into the initramfs
• mdev, devtmpfs and udev
• No complex doc
• Simple cmdline (only 2 args required) with no ugly symbols ,+:;({.*_-})

# git clone https://github.com/szorfein/eclosion
# cd eclosion
# make install

For a hypothetical zpool named zfsforninja:

$ zpool status | grep pool
  pool: zfsforninja

And a kernel version 4.14.80-gentoo:

$ ls /lib/modules
  4.14.80-gentoo

• Kernel cmdline : root=ZFS=zfsforninja/ROOT/gentoo init=/lib/systemd/systemd
• Build cmd : eclosion.sh --kernel 4.14.80-gentoo

Full disk encryption with custom hook, external header and gpg key: doc.

• Gentoo docs: gentoo-custom-initramfs, gentoo-custom-initramfs-examples
• LFS docs LFS
• Other initramfs: mkinitramfs-ll, bliss-initramfs, better-initramfs
• mdev-like-a-boss
• zfsonlinux
• salsa.debian
• genkernel-next
