But then it is not added to the initrd. Therefore we have to write a dracut module. This will contain information about which executables and libraries are needed inside the initrd, and which kernel modules we need. Can you give me a list of the executables and kernelmodules. Libraries that are needed by the executables, are automatically added. If you need for e.g. all libraries under foo/bar/, it/s sufficient to give the the directory. Does the initrd need to start any daemons? I will then try to write the dracut module for you. -- regards Thomas
