Ok, I have never used genkernel, and have no desire to...
I have no idea what dracut is or how to use it...
I have a remote system that has /usr on a separate partition.
So...
How do I find out if I am actually *using* an initramfs right now (I
know it is built into the kernel), and
If I am not, how do I do this without using genkernel? Is dracut t he
only other option? Is it easy/trivial to set one up manually?
I cannot imagine that gentoo is just going to throw me to the wolves
like this without providing *in-depth* instructions on how to make sure
my system will boot after this update, like they did with the
baselayout-2 update...
