<para>
The default value of this variable, which is set in the
<filename>meta/conf/bitbake.conf</filename> configuration
file in the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#source-directory'>Source Directory</ulink>,
is "cpio.gz".
The Linux kernel's initramfs mechanism, as opposed to the
initrd mechanism, expects an optionally compressed cpio
archive.
