Dear Praj, I thought about handle the initrd(initramfs) again. Anyway initramfs-tools RPM package should create for moblin2.
If Some yum base systems need to initramfs-tools except moblin2, We are building other yum repository. e.g) http://repos.moblin.org/moblin1 ... initramfs-tools and another package are included for moblin1.0. http://repos.moblin.org/moblin2 ... initramfs-tools and another package are included for moblin2.0. As I said long time ago, Yum repository should create for moblin1.0. What do you(and mobliners) think?
