<title>Bootup in the initrd</title>
- <para>The initrd implementation can be set up using systemd as well. In this case, boot up inside the
- initrd follows the following structure.</para>
-
- <para>systemd detects that it is run within an initrd by checking
- for the file <filename>/etc/initrd-release</filename>.
- The default target in the initrd is
- <filename>initrd.target</filename>. The bootup process begins
- identical to the system manager bootup (see above) until it
- reaches <filename>basic.target</filename>. From there, systemd
- approaches the special target <filename>initrd.target</filename>.
-
- Before any file systems are mounted, it must be determined whether
- the system will resume from hibernation or proceed with normal boot.
- This is accomplished by <filename>systemd-hibernate-resume@.service</filename>
- which must be finished before <filename>local-fs-pre.target</filename>,
- so no filesystems can be mounted before the check is complete.
