Do you have a method to force rebuilds of the initramfs? The argument you used against static linking was that my statically linked binary has a library with a data corruption bug and thus when I go to rescue my machine I might inadvertently delete everything. How is having the library in my initramfs any different (even dynamically linked?) -A > > -- > Best regards, > Michał Górny
