So build cat as a shell function :) More seriously, I agree it is helpful to have some tools available when trying to debug, or develop dracut. But when I move this into production in a cluster here, I'm going to want my image as lean as I can get it. What do you think of making a module, say 99useful-tools, what installs various tools that would be helpful, and have it installed by default. That way, it is easy to have the best of both worlds. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe initramfs" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
