[ILUG-D] 1D1C - kexec

kexec is a system call that enables you to load and boot into another kernel from the currently running kernel

To load the new kernel # kexec -l path/to/kernel --initrd=path/to/initrd --command-line=arguments

To load a new kernel with current boot parameters # kexec -l path/to/kernel --initrd=path/to/initrd --reuse-cmdline

To execute a currently loaded kernel # kexec -e

To unload current kexec target kernel # kexec -u
