Hi... After those couple previous thread it looks like move to dracut is ongoing, so I decided to try it.
I found a couple problems: - dracut inists on loading nouveau driver. With mknitrd, just booting with nokmsboot works. Booting with a dracut generated initrd ignores that. I think it is plymouth that forces it, even if I added 'blacklist nouveau' in a .conf file in modprobe.d: dracut -f: dash i18n rpmversion plymouth W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/fuc41ad" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/fuc41ac" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/fuc409d" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/fuc409c" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc4_fuc41ad" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc4_fuc41ac" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc4_fuc409d" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc4_fuc409c" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc3_fuc41ad" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc3_fuc41ac" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc3_fuc409d" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc3_fuc409c" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc0_fuc41ad" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc0_fuc41ac" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc0_fuc409d" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" W: Possible missing firmware "nouveau/nvc0_fuc409c" for kernel module "nouveau.ko" E: WARNING: Deprecated config file /etc/modprobe.conf, all config files belong into /etc/modprobe.d/.
