Subject: [PATCH] RECIPE-API-CHANGELOG: Fix entry for IMAGE_INITRD
Date: Sat, 29 Nov 2025 16:13:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <17e5982b-208f-445b-80f2-2725b1dee8bc@siemens.com> (raw)

From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com>

The provided isar-cip-core example was wrong as it neglected the special
dependencies of that build. Drop it, leaving only a note that standard
cases do not need to worry about hooking up the initramfs manually.

Furthermore fix the image file name.

Fixes: c3c4e72cbfc4 ("image: introduce IMAGE_INITRD, deprecate INITRD_IMAGE")

 INITRD_IMAGE is "only" deprecated; meaning that it may still be used (but
 build-time warnings will be raised). If both IMAGE_INITRD and INITRD_IMAGE
