Extra kernel parameters in Talos Image

Add custom kernel parameters to Talos Images, without upgrading. Ideal for Talos cloud images.

Run it

make sure your image, in this example gcp-amd64.tar.gz is in the current path

modprobe loop
docker run --privileged  -v .:/_out --rm -it ghcr.io/nberlee/talos-image-extra-kernel-params  gcp-amd64.tar.gz "cpufreq.default_governor=performance talos.dashboard.disabled=1"

• --privileged is needed for creating loop devices
• -v .:/_out mounts the current directory . to the working directory /_out in the container. Change . to any path
• --rm cleans up container after run
• ghcr.io/nberlee/talos-image-extra-kernel-params latest container image
• gcp-amd64.tar.gz path to talos image to modify
• "cpufreq.default_governor=performance talos.dashboard.disabled=1" parameters to add, encapsulate in "" for multiple kernel parameters.
