OK, so I successfully did build 0.8.1, but it does not like my root
file system parameter, dracut chokes and puts me in an emergency shell
and I have to mount it manually. I tried root=rpool and
root=rpool/root which dracut completely said unable to continue and if
I omit the root= altogether like I have done in previous versions, it
says it can't mount the root file system, and throws me into the
emergency shell where I can mount it manually. I do have rpool/root
designated as rootfs.
