Description-en: build a kernel and initrd to run Debian from RAM
debirf (DEBian on Initial Ram Filesystem) is a set of tools designed
to create and prepare a kernel and initial ram filesystem that can
run a full-blown Debian environment entirely from RAM.
.
The kernel and initramfs pair created by debirf can be used for a
myriad of purposes, from quick-and-easy system repair to diskless
thin clients. The kernel and initrd can be placed in your system
boot partition, burnt to read-only media, or supplied by a netboot
server.
.
The debirf tools use a module architecture which allows you to
customize debirf for any possible purpose by specifying what
components are included in the generated image.
