We are trying to tackle that in parallel. At least when generating virtual machine images we can temporarily workaround that with short %post scripts in kickstart files. > I am sure even non-UEFI users will be better of of not having a host > specific initrd.

We'll have to continue support kernel + host-generated initrd for the foreseeable future. UKIs are a second option. Adding kernel + shipped initrd as third option IMHO just adds complexity for no real benefit. > Once That is possible that UKI can be easily be intgrated and > tested. We will be also provide a subset of benefits to the non-UEFI > users(for example on other arches). We have experimental grub patches which can boot unified kernel on bios systems. Intended use case: hybrid bios/uefi cloud images with UKIs. Extending that to ppc is probably possible too should the ppc arch maintainers be interested. take care, Gerd _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
