febootstrap-supermin-helper: Replace objcopy call for embedding init binary

2011-08-25T08:44:29+00:00

objcopy needs "output-target" and "binary-architecture" parameters
which makes it necessary to keep a list of known architectures.

The bin2s.pl script generates input for the GNU assembler which should
produce an object file that is equivalent to that produced by objcopy.

I have successfully tested the change on an amd64 Debian/unstable system.

RWMJ: Added bin2s.pl to EXTRA_DIST and updated .gitignore.

febootstrap: Add --save-temps option to save temporary files on exit.

Update copyright notices in manual pages.

2011-08-19T09:08:21+00:00

Include ext4 module in the initrd.

2011-08-12T22:25:17+00:00

Modern kernels allow you to use the ext4.ko module to support ext2 and
ext3 access.

On Fedora, this is the default (albeit not as a module, so this code
path would not be tested yet).
