iPXE with multiple initrd permissions

[robinsmidsrod]

As far as I know, setting ownership and/or permissions on the file loaded this way is not supported.

Most likely the most correct way to implement this is to make chown and chmod equivalent commands in iPXE, but I'm unsure how complicated that would be. I think this is a question more suited for the developer mailing-list.

A workaround is to create a script on the initrd that changes the permissions of /opt/bootlocal.sh before it tries to execute it, or invokes it explicitly with the shell, like this:

Code:

$ /bin/sh /opt/bootlocal.sh
$ /opt/bootlocal.sh # NOT THIS WAY

That should avoid the execute bit problem.
