    Hi Fred,

    I do not have a /usr/live directory.  Is this because I am
    installing a LIVE SUB, but a direct install?


​No. That was a typo for the /usr/lib/dracut/​
​directory.​

        By adding a user
        preference to a new file in /etc/dracut.conf.d/ such as
        01-nohostonly.conf containing the hostonly="no" line, whenever
        dracut
        builds a new initramfs for your system, such as when there is a
        kernel
        update, it will honor that user preference.  See


     >From what I can tell, the entire file in /etc/dracut.conf.d is
    substituted.  Originally, I had thought to only put the changes
    in the /etc/file.

          22: Files with the same name in /etc/dracut.conf.d will
              replace files in /usr/lib/dracut/dracut.conf.d.


​You can replace the​ entire file
  01-dist.conf
​, but then any future changes to it in a new version of dracut will be
overlooked.  Having a separate file name for just the hostonly option​
means you want to override that option only.

I put in my directions to create a /etc/dracut.conf.d/01-custom.conf
with only that line in it.  (I am wiping a rebuilding the stick a
third time -- don't ask!)

Thank you for the clarification!
