Yes, I'm well aware.

Which brings me back to Rahul's EPEL livecd-tools 013-5 versus the
"Stateless Tech Preview" in RHEL 5.2 (really anything 5.1+).  I see it's
looking more like a merger of the two.

I'm now looking at the mkinitrd of Fedora 9 versus RHEL 5.  Is it work
generating a patch (which will have obvious conditionals) against newer
mkinitrd developments (such as the Fedora 10 versoin) so it can work for
RHEL 5?

Or would everyone agree it's probably not a good idea to try to work
something for RHEL 5?  My idea was to replace mayflower with something
for RHEL 5 now, and then work on adding those features to mkinitrd for
possibly RHEL 6 (or some future development) when I have time.

I know this is not the only client that is going to want some of these
options.
