Summary     : Initramfs generator using udev
Description :
dracut contains tools to create a bootable initramfs for 2.6 Linux kernels.
Unlike existing implementations, dracut does hard-code as little as possible
into the initramfs. dracut contains various modules which are driven by the
event-based udev. Having root on MD, DM, LVM2, LUKS is supported as well as
NFS, iSCSI, NBD, FCoE with the dracut-network package.

Update Information:

* fix initramfs creation on noexec tmpdir
* more options for lsinitrd
* bash completion for lsinitrd
* do not output debug information on initramfs creation, if rd.debug is on the kernel command line
* drop requirement on 'file', lsinitrd can find the magic on its own

* do not call plymouth with full path
* include systemd-random-seed-load.service
* fix ca-bundle.crt for ssl curl
* add support for "iso-scan/filename" kernel parameter
