From 5984246f9626fbc3d356ee2d3b3cd159f6d0a7c2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yongbo Yao Date: Wed, 7 Apr 2021 13:33:22 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Loader: support booting OS from memory disk (MD) Until now, the boot image can be embedded into the loader with /sys/tools/embed_mfs.sh, and memory disk (MD) is already supported in loader source. But due to memory disk (MD) driver isn't registered to the loader yet, the boot image can't be boot from embedded memory disk.
