+    <para>
+      The <package>kernel</package> package is now a meta package that pulls in <package>kernel-core</package> and <package>kernel-modules</package>. The <package>kernel-core</package> package is smaller than a full package and is well-suited for virtualized environments. By optionally uninstalling <package>kernel-modules</package>, cloud image size can be reduced.

+    <para>
+      The <package>kernel-modules</package> package should be included when Fedora is installed on real hardware.

+      <para>
+        Please note, that a new initramfs is only automatically generated by the <package>kernel-core</package> package but not the <package>kernel-modules</package> package. If you only installed <package>kernel-core</package> at first and install <package>kernel-modules</package> at a later point in time, you need to create a new initramfs manually using dracut, if any of the newly installed modules has become critical for your system's boot up.

+      <para>
+        The <command>dracut</command> utility is used to create the initramfs on Fedora. To regenerate an initramfs for all installed kernels, use the following command:
