Re: [Fedora-livecd-list] Hybrid initramfs busybox/nash x86 and x86_64 testers
Hehe.. I can see the scrunching on your face now..
It was actually simple to do, it should fix the problem with x86_64
bootstraps.
I slimmed the livecd-mkinitrd.sh (mkinitrd) script WAY down in the process.
This doesn't mean much but I think we can probably do as you suggest and
use /sbin/mkinitrd on the host.
I'll experiment with this soon after I get done with a current tester on
x86_64.

Ugh. Why not use the actual stock mkinitrd pieces with just an
appropriate livecd-mkrootdev as I've outlined a few times previously and
implemented in my hg repo... :/
There's a lot of logic in mkinitrd to handle a lot of cases and trying
to replicate all of that in a live CD specific environment is just going
to lead to problems that are very difficult to debug
