-.TH RDEV 8 "20 November 1993" "Linux 0.99" "Linux Programmer's Manual"
-.SH NAME
-rdev \- query/set image root device, RAM disk size, or video mode
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B rdev
-.RB [ \-Rrvh ]
-.RB [ \-o
-.IR offset ]
-.RI [ image
-.RI [ value
-.RI [  offset ]]]
-.br
-.B rdev
-.RB [ \-o

-.RI [ image
-.RI [ root_device
-.RI [  offset ]]]
-.br
-.B ramsize
-.RB [ \-o
-.IR offset ]
-.RI [ image
-.RI [ size
-.RI [  offset ]]]
-.br
-.B vidmode
-.RB [ \-o

-.RI [ image
-.RI [ mode
-.RI [  offset ]]]
-.br
-.B rootflags
-.RB [ \-o
-.IR offset ]
-.RI [ image
-.RI [ flags
-.RI [  offset ]]]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-With no arguments,
-.B rdev
-outputs an
-.I /etc/mtab
-line for the current root file system.
-With no arguments,
-.BR ramsize ", " vidmode ", and " rootflags
-print usage information.
-
-In a bootable image for the Linux kernel on i386, there are several pairs
-of bytes which specify the root device, the video mode, and the size of
-the RAM disk.  These pairs of bytes, by default, begin
-at offset 504 (decimal) in the kernel image:
-
-.nf
-.RS
- 498 Root flags
-(500 and 502 Reserved)
- 504 RAM Disk Size
- 506 VGA Mode
- 508 Root Device
-(510 Boot Signature)
-.RE
-.fi
-
-.B rdev
-will change these values.
-
-Typical values for the
-.I image
-parameter, which is a bootable Linux kernel image, might be:
-
-.nf
-.RS
-/vmlinux
-/vmunix
-/boot/bzImage-2.4.0
-/dev/fd0
-/dev/fd1
-.RE
-.fi
-
-When using the
-.B rdev
-command, the
-.I root_device
-parameter might be something like:
-
-.nf
-.RS
-/dev/hda1
-/dev/hdf13
-/dev/sda2
-/dev/sdc4
-/dev/ida/c0d0p1
-.RE
-.fi
-
-One may also specify the device by a comma-separated pair
-of decimal integers
-.IR major , minor .
-
-For the
-.B ramsize
-command, the
-.I size
-parameter specifies the size of the RAM disk in kilobytes. 2.0.x kernels
-and newer dynamically allocate the ramdisk and do not need this setting.
-
-For the
-.B rootflags
-command, the
-.I flags
-parameter contains extra information used when mounting root.
-Currently the only effect of these flags is to force the kernel to
-mount the root filesystem in readonly mode if
-.I flags
-is non-zero.
-
-For the
-.B vidmode
-command, the
-.I mode
-parameter specifies the video mode:
-
-.nf
-.RS
--3 = Prompt
--2 = Extended VGA
--1 = Normal VGA
- 0 = as if "0" was pressed at the prompt
- 1 = as if "1" was pressed at the prompt
- 2 = as if "2" was pressed at the prompt
- n = as if "n" was pressed at the prompt
-.RE
-.fi
-
-If the
-.I value
-is not specified, the
-.I image
-will be examined to determine the current settings.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.TP
-.B \-r
-Causes
-.B rdev
-to act like
-.BR ramsize
-(Not relevant for 2.0.x and newer kernels).
-.TP
-.B \-R
-Causes
-.B rdev
-to act like
-.BR rootflags .
-.TP
-.B \-v
-Causes
-.B rdev
-to act like
-.BR vidmode .
-.TP
-.B \-h
-Provides help.
-.SH BUGS
-The
-.B rdev
-utility, when used other than to find a name for the current root device,
-is an ancient hack that works by patching a kernel image at a magic offset
-with magic numbers. It does not work on architectures other than i386.
-Its use is strongly discouraged. Use a boot loader like SysLinux or LILO
-instead.
-.SH HISTORY
-At offset 502 there used to be the device number of the swap device
-(in Linux 0.12), and "rdev -s" or "swapdev" would set this.
-However, since Linux 0.95 this constant is not used any longer,
-and the swap device is specified using the
-.BR swapon (2)
-system call.
-
-At offset 504 there used to be the size of the ramdisk in kilobytes.
-One would specify a size, and this much was grabbed off the top of memory.
-In Linux 1.1.39 it became also possible to set this value on the kernel
-command line.
-In Linux 1.3.48 the ramdisk setup was changed. Ramdisk memory is now
-taken from the buffer cache, so that the ramdisk can grow dynamically.
-The interpretation of the ramdisk word was changed to a word of which
-the high order bit is a prompt flag (1: prompt for ramdisk:
-"VFS: Insert ramdisk floppy and press ENTER" - this is needed with a
-two-floppy boot), the next bit a load flag (1: load ramdisk),
-and the low order 11 bits give the starting block number of the
-root filesystem image (so that one can have a single floppy boot).

-.IR linux/Documentation/ramdisk.txt .

-Subject: Re: rdev
-From: almesber@nessie.cs.id.ethz.ch (Werner Almesberger)
-To: Rik Faith <faith@cs.unc.edu>
-
-There are quite a few versions of rdev:
-
-  - the original rootdev that only printed the current root device, by
-    Linus.
-  - rdev that does what rootdev did and that also allows you to change
-    the root (and swap) device, by me.
-  - rdev got renamed to setroot and I think even to rootdev on various
-    distributions.
-  - Peter MacDonald added video mode and RAM disk setting and included
-    this version on SLS, called rdev again. I've attached his rdev.c to
-    this mail.

-From: almesber@nessie.cs.id.ethz.ch (Werner Almesberger)
-Organization: Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), Zurich, CH
-
-With all that socket, X11, disk driver and FS hacking going on, apparently
-nobody has found time to address one of the minor nuisances of life: set-
-ting the root FS device is still somewhat cumbersome. I've written a little
-utility which can read and set the root device in boot images:
-
-rdev accepts an optional offset argument, just in case the address should
-ever move from 508. If called without arguments, rdev outputs an mtab line
-for the current root FS, just like /etc/rootdev does.
-
-ramsize sets the size of the ramdisk.  If size is zero, no ramdisk is used.
-
-vidmode sets the default video mode at bootup time.  -1 uses default video
-mode, -2 uses menu.
