You don't need everything (obviously -- otherwise dracut/init* would not work) Only the things necessary to get the system bootstrapped. It occurs to me that anything dracut fetches from /usr/* to put in the initrd is the stuff that has caused the breakage. To me, the requirement for an initramfs/initrd is an admission of failure. Breaking the rules is what made it required. -- G.Wolfe Woodbury redwo...@gmail.com
