So, I found this message from the fai lists: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.fai/8253 except it uses the old(?) initramfs method of FAI from a while ago. Now, FAI uses dracut, so what is the translation of the above into dracut? Basically, I need to add some more modules into the initrd in order for a USB dongle to be (I hope) properly set up after the PXE boot, but I'm not sure how to do that in the new dracut world order. Thank you! -pete
