# vim:set ft=sh # MODULES # The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are # run. Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules # in this array. For instance: # MODULES=(usbhid xhci_hcd) MODULES=() # BINARIES # This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may # wish into the CPIO image. This is run last, so it may be used to # override the actual binaries included by a given hook # BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries BINARIES=() # FILES # This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added # as-is and are not parsed in any way. This is useful for config files. FILES=() # HOOKS # This is the most important setting in this file. The HOOKS control the # modules and scripts added to the image, and what happens at boot time. # Order is important, and it is recommended that you do not change the # order in which HOOKS are added. Run 'mkinitcpio -H ' for # help on a given hook. # 'base' is _required_ unless you know precisely what you are doing. # 'udev' is _required_ in order to automatically load modules # 'filesystems' is _required_ unless you specify your fs modules in MODULES # Examples: ## This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above. ## No RAID, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed. # HOOKS=(base) # ## This setup will autodetect all modules for your system and should ## work as a sane default # HOOKS=(base udev autodetect modconf block filesystems fsck) # ## This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems. ## No autodetection is done. # HOOKS=(base udev modconf block filesystems fsck) # ## This setup assembles a mdadm array with an encrypted root file system. ## Note: See 'mkinitcpio -H mdadm_udev' for more information on RAID devices. # HOOKS=(base udev modconf keyboard keymap consolefont block mdadm_udev encrypt filesystems fsck) # ## This setup loads an lvm2 volume group. # HOOKS=(base udev modconf block lvm2 filesystems fsck) # ## This will create a systemd based initramfs which loads an encrypted root filesystem. # HOOKS=(base systemd autodetect modconf kms keyboard sd-vconsole sd-encrypt block filesystems fsck) # ## NOTE: If you have /usr on a separate partition, you MUST include the # usr and fsck hooks.
