initramfs-tools and rebuilt to depend on linux-initramfs-tool instead
(which dracut Provides). but once that was done it turned out that
(again, iirc) ubuntu's initramfs management didn't actually work
w/dracut in place.
at that point i gave up and went with a jessie nfsroot.

to give options to parted (e.g. to create a
GRUB BIOS boot partition). The option to parted needs to be of the form
set N bios_grub on, where N is the partition number.
for this it may make sense to use disklabel:gpt-bios. it creates an
add'l partition for bios_grub.

to a dirinstall. you could (as mentioned in the guide) use a

to satisfy a concern on reinstalls and future-proofing, are you able
to confirm that the 0-100% workaround partitioning gives the same

, but a switch isn't a good and
valid option for now IMO.
fwiw i was seeing frequent ipconfig hangs with the klibc-utils from
lucid. based on this thread i pulled in klibc-utils 1.5.20-1 and
recreated the nfsroot. this appears to have eliminated the problem.
thanks!
