I know earlier versions of NASH employed a findlodev, which is
non-functional now.
Should we use this sort of approach?
We'll probably also want to write out an /etc/sysconfig/mkinitrd
with a
MODULES line prior to running anaconda, so that the proper modules[1]
end up in the initramfs as generated during the install.
[1] This will also let us add a set of "common" scsi and sata
controllers so that people who are using a CD drive attached to one of
these could use the live CD
If this doesn't need to be dynamically set, surely something like this
should be sufficient:
modules = ["squashfs", "loop", "scsi_mod",
"sd_mod"]
output = open("%s/etc/sysconfig/mkinitrd" %(sysdir,))
output.write(MODULES="%s" %(modules,))
output.close()
