This is a tricky one. In order to resize /boot, which is, commonly the first partition, you need to push forward the beginning of the next partition. This is not an easy task, especially if you are not using LVM – then you have to use external partitioning modification tools, like PQMagic (if it still…

This explains the how it is built more than the…

Linux Initial Ram Disk (initrd) is a mechanism to perform disk-independent actions before attempting to mount the ‘/’ disk. These actions usually include loading disk drivers, setting up LVM or software RAID, etc. The reason these actions are performed within initrd…
