LIVE-TOOLS(8)                 Debian Live Project                LIVE-TOOLS(8)



NAME
       live-update-initramfs  - writes out updated kernel and initrd images to
       the live media.


DESCRIPTION
       live-update-initramfs is a wrapper replacing the update-initramfs  com‐
       mand provided by the initramfs-tools package.

       In  live-systems  with  a persistence layer, live-update-initramfs will
       write out updated kernel and initrd images  to  the  live  media.  This
       allows  kernel  upgrades  from  within  the live-system through apt-get
       without needing to  manually  synchronise  kernel  and  initrd  to  the
       live-medium.  live-update-initramfs  passes  through  all  command-line
       arguments   to   the    original    update-initramfs    command;    see
       update-initramfs.orig.initramfs-tools(8) for more information about the
       options of the original update-initramfs command.
