imgstat [<name>...]
imgstat
imgstat pxelinux.0
Display information about the specified images. If no images are explicitly specified, iPXE will display information about all images. For example:
iPXE> imgstat boot.php : 111 bytes [script] [SELECTED]
In this example you can see that there is a single image, named boot.php
, which is an iPXE script. The image has already been selected for booting (using a command such as kernel
or imgselect
).
It is possible to have multiple images present at the same time. For example:
iPXE> imgstat vmlinuz : 2904736 bytes [bzImage] [SELECTED] "console=ttyS0,115200n8 console=tty0" initrd.img : 421168 bytes e1000.ko : 64852 bytes "/lib/modules/e1000.ko"
In this example you can see that there are three images. The image named vmlinuz
is a Linux kernel bzImage and has been selected for booting. The command line “console=ttyS0,115200n8 console=tty0
” will be passed to the Linux kernel when it boots.
The other two images will be available to the booted Linux kernel image: the image named initrd.img
is a Linux initial RAM filesystem image, and the image named e1000.ko
is a Linux kernel module that will be provided as the file /lib/modules/e1000.ko
within the initial RAM filesystem.
