Yes, dracut has a similar module model, with the additional benefit is that it's distro-independent (developed mainly by Fedora, but as you can see we use it as well). > Frugalware is described as "..designed for intermediate users (who are > not afraid of text mode)", so I believe that it should support > 'intermediate' disk setups (raid-1, lvm2, encryption...) which are > becoming more common nowadays when the HD space is quite cheap. Raid-1 is already supported, the rest is true -- the historical background is that up to recent we supported ppc, and used libparted to detect partitions (which works with x86 and ppc partition tables as well), but fails to detect LVM partitions. Now that we don't support ppc anymore, this can be improved.
