Subject: [EXTERNAL] [xcat-user] How to modify list of modules to add to
initrd?
I want to build my diskless nodes with FIPS enabled, and in rhel8 this
requires building FIPS into the initrd. I can do this with a custom dracut
config, but this file needs to be in the rootimg chdir before the initrd is
generated by genimage, which isn’t possible on a clean image creation. I am
also getting errors with ext3 and nfs on my rhel 8.4 MN. I’d like to clean
this list up and add FIPS so on the initial creation of the image,
everything is loaded correctly. How is this list created and maintained?
