Files

The Build image menu entry created several new files in the obj subdirectory:

File Description
obj/image An image of the bootable 1.44 MB floppy disk. If you used the dd command to copy this file to a floppy disk, it would boot into Minicom.
obj/imageroot/* Contains all the files used to build the obj/image file. These are the files that actually need to get to the DiskOnChip.
obj/imageroot/banner.txt This file is displayed on the console as the image boots. The file is built once by the elw--newproject command. Once built, it can be modified to display what you want to see.The source of this file is in mnt/banner.txt.
obj/imageroot/bzImage This file is the actual Linux kernel. It’s copied directly from within the kernel you built in the preceding procedure.
obj/imageroot/ldlinux.sys The meat of the SYSLINUX bootloader. It copies the kernel from the boot media into memory and then executes it.
obj/imageroot/readme A short text file that tells what’s on the image. It’s built once by the elw--newproject command. Its source is in mnt/readme.
obj/imageroot/rootfs.gz Contains the initrd filesystem. This is the runtime root filesystem of any ELW project. SYSLINUX uncompresses it into memory as it loads it from the boot media.
obj/imageroot/syslinux.cfg Tells SYSLINUX how to boot the media. It’s built once by the elw--newproject command. Normally you shouldn’t have to change it; its source is in the mnt/syslinux.cfg file. Look to the SYSLINUX documentation for more information about this file.
