A note for Raspberry Pi users: On Raspberry Pi systems, the Slackware kernel package installs all standard boot assets, such as: * The Linux Kernel * The Operating System Initial RAM Disk (OS InitRD) * Device Tree Blobs (DTBs) into /boot, as on all other Slackware platforms. However, the Raspberry Pi firmware bootloader does not use the files in /boot directly. Instead, it loads the kernel and InitRD from the Pi-specific VFAT partition which is mounted on your system as: /boot/platform/hwm_bw When you upgrade the Slackware kernel package or run the os-initrd-mgr tool, the kernel and OS InitRD are automatically synchronized with the versions in that location -- so you don't need to do anything. slk_image-armv8 – The Linux Kernel slk_initrd-armv8 – The Operating System InitRD To adjust how the Raspberry Pi boots, edit the following configuration files in this location : /boot/platform/hwm_bw * config.txt – Main Raspberry Pi bootloader configuration file. * slk_config.txt – Included from config.txt; defines the filenames for the kernel and InitRD listed above. * cmdline.txt – Defines the Linux kernel command-line parameters. After making changes, simply reboot the system for them to take effect.
