I know dracut can update modules in initramfs, but I think it is too slow. So I'm wondering what is the fastest way to update modules in initramfs of CentOS 7? Thanks!

...mage generated by dracut -f does not include the /etc/crypttab from the OS (it only contains the entry for the root device). Once I have manually added the other volumes in the /etc/crypttab file from the initramfs image, clevis is able to decrypt all volumes. Now the question is why the generated iniramfs image has a different /etc/crypttab. How can I specify /etc/crypttab for the initramfs so that furhter kernel updates will not replace it with the wrong file? Radu

The key for root is *not* in /etc/crypttab - that's only for the secondary ones....

Hello, I'm attempting to convert some of my existing initrd images to the new initramfs format. However, I have some questions as too what exactly /init in a iniramfs system is responsible for? My current images probe/configure devices using devfs and libkudzu (basically, the same as knoppix detection setup) and create a tmpramfs root for use with pivot_root. However, looking thru prepare_namespace, it appears that MD arrays need to be detected/fired up as...
