<p>Jw220519: Update method for adding linux kernel.</p> <hr /> <div>Some things you might want to know if you're running Alpine in a Docker container.<br /> <br /> == using mkinitfs ==<br /> <br /> By default mkinitfs will use the running kernel to build the initfs. Since your Docker container is under some other kernel you need to specify this manually.<br /> <br /> Alpine 3.11 and later:&lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;<br /> &lt;code&gt;apk add linux-lts&lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> Alpine 3.10 and earlier:<br /> &lt;code&gt;apk add linux-vanilla&lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;code&gt;cat /usr/share/kernel/vanilla/kernel.release&lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;code&gt;mkinitfs 4.19.41-0-vanilla&lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;code&gt;mkinitfs `cat /usr/share/kernel/vanilla/kernel.release`&lt;/code&gt;<br /> <br /> == See also ==<br /> * [[Docker]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Virtualization]]<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> <br /> # [https://git.alpinelinux.org/aports/commit/?h=3.11-stable&amp;id=eba4f554cc53325bb37f0cca97a5dfd024582271 Natanael Copa, &quot;vanilla: remove linux-vanilla. replaced by linux-lts,&quot; Alpine Linux aports repository, commit eba4f554, 12 Dec 2019, (https://git.alpinelinux.org/aports/commit/?h=3.11-stable&amp;id=eba4f554cc53325bb37f0cca97a5dfd024582271 accessed 19 May 2022).]</div>
