        Hello,
        Could I use mkbootimg with externally compiled kernel (with the kernel config changes needed by halium) to create halium-boot.img?
        The kernel requires some specific tooling. That's why I'm not following the official standalone kernel guide.
        If it's possible, I need a way to create boot initramfs.

          I've got this build log snippet as a ramdisk location clue:

          Downloading dynparts ramdisk for devices with dynamic partitions
          ++ RAMDISK_URL=https://github.com/halium/initramfs-tools-halium/releases/download/dynparts/initrd.img-touch-arm64

            @faveoled If you need custom tooling use this configuration option as shown in the sample deviceinfo file.

            May the source be with you
