When I started trying to use dracut, I didn't even think to disable or remove the in kernel one. I have updated my kernel several times since and I have not had a single issue. So, if you decide to use dracut, make sure you clean out the old cruft first. That said, I didn't know dracut could do the file system checks before mounting and doing the switch_root thing. I see it include the programs but never seen it actually do the check. Makes me wonder. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
