How to specify custom parameters for initrd?

Open RaitoBezarius opened this issue 8 years ago • 4 comments

Hi,

I would like to add the isolcpus parameter on my C2M machines, for improved performance.

What is the way to do it on Scaleway? Support told me to ask here.

It isn't in the code yet but they can add it via the tags of your server (just like they do it for kexec)

However https://github.com/scaleway/initrd might be a better place

@meyskens Thank you, any bit of docs or code so that I can understand what kind of tags should I put on the server?
