++DRACUT(8)
++=========
++:doctype: manpage
++:man source: dracut
++:man manual: dracut
++
++NAME
++----
++dracut - low-level tool for generating an initramfs image
++
++SYNOPSIS
++--------
++*dracut* ['OPTION...'] [<image> [_<kernel version>_]]
++
++DESCRIPTION
++-----------
++dracut creates an initial image used by the kernel for preloading the block
++device modules (such as IDE, SCSI or RAID) which are needed to access the root
++filesystem, mounting the root filesystem and booting into the real system.
++
++At boot time, the kernel unpacks that archive into RAM disk, mounts and uses it
++as initial root file system. All finding of the root device happens in this
++early userspace.
++
++For a complete list of kernel command line options see *dracut.cmdline*(7)
++
++OPTIONS
++-------
++**-f, --force**::
++ overwrite existing initramfs file.
++
++**-m, --modules** _<list of dracut modules>_::
++ specify a space-separated list of dracut modules to call when building the initramfs.
++ Modules are located in _/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d_. This parameter can be
++ specified multiple times.
+++
++[NOTE]
++===============================
++If [LIST] has multiple arguments, then you have to put these in quotes. For
++example:
++----
++# dracut --modules "module1 module2" ...
++----
++===============================
++
++**-o, --omit** _<list of dracut modules>_::
++ omit a space-separated list of dracut modules. This parameter can be specified multiple times.
++
++[NOTE]
++===============================
++If [LIST] has multiple arguments, then you have to put these in quotes. For
++example:
++----
++# dracut --omit "module1 module2" ...
++----
++===============================
++
++**-a, --add** _<list of dracut modules>_::
++ add a space-separated list of dracut modules to the default set of modules.
++ This parameter can be specified multiple times.
+++
++[NOTE]
++===============================
++If [LIST] has multiple arguments, then you have to put these in quotes. For
++example:
++----
++# dracut --add "module1 module2" ...
++----
++===============================
++
++**--force-add** _<list of dracut modules>_::
++ force to add a space-separated list of dracut modules to the default set of
++ modules, when -H is specified. This parameter can be specified multiple
++ times.
+++
++[NOTE]
++===============================
++If [LIST] has multiple arguments, then you have to put these in quotes. For
++example:
++----
++# dracut --force-add "module1 module2" ...
++----
++===============================
++
++**-d, --drivers** _<list of kernel modules>_::
++ specify a space-separated list of kernel modules to exclusively include
++ in the initramfs. The kernel modules have to be specified without the ".ko"
++ suffix. This parameter can be specified multiple times.
+++
++[NOTE]
++===============================
++If [LIST] has multiple arguments, then you have to put these in quotes. For
++example:
++----
++# dracut --drivers "kmodule1 kmodule2" ...
++----
++===============================
++
++**--add-drivers** _<list of kernel modules>_::
++ specify a space-separated list of kernel modules to add to the initramfs.
++ The kernel modules have to be specified without the ".ko" suffix. This
++ parameter can be specified multiple times.
+++
++[NOTE]
++===============================
++If [LIST] has multiple arguments, then you have to put these in quotes. For
++example:

+++
++Default:
++ _/etc/dracut.conf.d_
++
++**--sshkey** _<sshkey file>_:: ssh key file used with ssh-client module.
++
++**-l, --local**::
++ activates the local mode. dracut will use modules from the current working

++ _/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d_.
++ This is useful when running dracut from a git checkout.
++
++**-H, --hostonly**::
++ Host-Only mode: Install only what is needed for booting
++ the local host instead of a generic host.
+++
++[WARNING]
++====
++If chrooted to another root other than the real root device, use "--fstab" and provide a valid _/etc/fstab_.
++====
++
++**--fstab**::
++ Use _/etc/fstab_ instead of _/proc/self/mountinfo_.
++
++**--add_fstab** _<filename>_ ::
++ Add entries of _<filename>_ to the initramfs /etc/fstab.
++
++**--mount** "_<device>_ _<mountpoint>_ _<filesystem type>_ _<filesystem options>_"::

++
++**-I, --install** _<file list>_::
++ install the space separated list of files into the initramfs.
+++
++[NOTE]
++===============================
++If [LIST] has multiple arguments, then you have to put these in quotes. For
++example:
+++
++----
++# dracut --install "/bin/foo /sbin/bar" ...
++----
++===============================
++
++**--gzip**::
++ Compress the generated initramfs using gzip. This will be done by default,
++ unless another compression option or --no-compress is passed. Equivalent to
++ "--compress=gzip -9"
++
++**--bzip2**::
++ Compress the generated initramfs using bzip2.
+++
++[WARNING]
++====
++Make sure your kernel has bzip2 decompression support compiled in, otherwise you
++will not be able to boot. Equivalent to "--compress=bzip2"
++====
++
++**--lzma**::
++ Compress the generated initramfs using lzma.
+++
++[WARNING]
++====
++Make sure your kernel has lzma decompression support compiled in, otherwise you

++====
++
++**--xz**::
++ Compress the generated initramfs using xz.
+++
++[WARNING]
++====
++Make sure your kernel has xz decompression support compiled in, otherwise you
++will not be able to boot. Equivalent to "--compress=xz --check=crc32
++--lzma2=dict=1MiB"
++====
++
++**--compress** _<compressor>_::
++ Compress the generated initramfs using the passed compression program. If
++ you pass it just the name of a compression program, it will call that
++ program with known-working arguments. If you pass a quoted string with
++ arguments, it will be called with exactly those arguments. Depending on what
++ you pass, this may result in an initramfs that the kernel cannot decompress.
++
++**--no-compress**::
++ Do not compress the generated initramfs. This will override any other
++ compression options.
++
++**--list-modules**::
++ List all available dracut modules.
++
++**-M, --show-modules**::
++ Print included module's name to standard output during build.
++
++**--keep**::

++FILES
++-----
++_/var/log/dracut.log_::
++ logfile of initramfs image creation

++
++= Introduction
++This section is a modified version of
++http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initrd which is licensed under the
++Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.
++
++== Definition
++An _initial ramdisk_ is a temporary file system used in the boot process of the
++Linux kernel. _initrd_ and _initramfs_ refer to slightly different schemes for
++loading this file system into memory. Both are commonly used to make
++preparations before the real root file system can be mounted.
++
++== Rationale
++Many Linux distributions ship a single, generic kernel image that is intended to
++boot as wide a variety of hardware as possible. The device drivers for this
++generic kernel image are included as loadable modules, as it is not possible to
++statically compile them all into the one kernel without making it too large to
++boot from computers with limited memory or from lower-capacity media like floppy
++disks.
++
++This then raises the problem of detecting and loading the modules necessary to
++mount the root file system at boot time (or, for that matter, deducing where or
++what the root file system is).
++
++To further complicate matters, the root file system may be on a software RAID
++volume, LVM, NFS (on diskless workstations), or on an encrypted partition. All
++of these require special preparations to mount.
++
++Another complication is kernel support for hibernation, which suspends the
++computer to disk by dumping an image of the entire system to a swap partition or
++a regular file, then powering off. On next boot, this image has to be made
++accessible before it can be loaded back into memory.
++
++To avoid having to hardcode handling for so many special cases into the kernel,
++an initial boot stage with a temporary root file system
++—now dubbed early user space— is used. This root file system would contain
++user-space helpers that would do the hardware detection, module loading and
++device discovery necessary to get the real root file system mounted.
++
++== Implementation
++An image of this initial root file system (along with the kernel image) must be
++stored somewhere accessible by the Linux bootloader or the boot firmware of the
++computer. This can be:
++
++* The root file system itself
++* A boot image on an optical disc
++* A small ext2/ext3 or FAT-formatted partition on a local disk
++ (a _boot partition_)
++* A TFTP server (on systems that can boot from Ethernet)
++
++The bootloader will load the kernel and initial root file system image into
++memory and then start the kernel, passing in the memory address of the image.
++
++Depending on which algorithms were compiled statically into it, the kernel can
++currently unpack initrd/initramfs images compressed with gzip, bzip2 and LZMA.
++
++== Mount preparations
++dracut can generate a customized initrams image which contains only whatever is
++necessary to boot some particular computer, such as ATA, SCSI and filesystem
++kernel modules (host-only mode).
++
++dracut can also generate a more generic initramfs image (default mode).
++
++dracut's initramfs starts only with the device name of the root file system (or
++its UUID) and must discover everything else at boot time. A complex cascade of
++tasks must be performed to get the root file system mounted:
++
++* Any hardware drivers that the boot process depends on must be loaded. All
++kernel modules for common storage devices are packed onto the initramfs and then
++udev pulls in modules matching the computer's detected hardware.
++
++* On systems which display a boot rd.splash screen, the video hardware must be
++initialized and a user-space helper started to paint animations onto the display
++in lockstep with the boot process.
++
++* If the root file system is on NFS, dracut does then:
++** Bring up the primary network interface.
++** Invoke a DHCP client, with which it can obtain a DHCP lease.
++** Extract the name of the NFS share and the address of the NFS server from the
++lease.
++** Mount the NFS share.
++
++* If the root file system appears to be on a software RAID device, there is no
++way of knowing which devices the RAID volume spans; the standard MD utilities
++must be invoked to scan all available block devices with a raid signature and
++bring the required ones online.
++
++* If the root file system appears to be on a logical volume, the LVM utilities
++must be invoked to scan for and activate the volume group containing it.
++
++* If the root file system is on an encrypted block device:
++** Invoke a helper script to prompt the user to type in a passphrase and/or
++insert a hardware token (such as a smart card or a USB security dongle).
++
++* Create a decryption target with the device mapper.
++
++dracut uses udev, an event-driven hotplug agent, which invokes helper programs
++as hardware devices, disk partitions and storage volumes matching certain rules
++come online. This allows discovery to run in parallel, and to progressively
++cascade into arbitrary nestings of LVM, RAID or encryption to get at the root
++file system.
++
++When the root file system finally becomes visible:
++
++* Any maintenance tasks which cannot run on a mounted root file system
++are done.
++* The root file system is mounted read-only.
++* Any processes which must continue running (such as the rd.splash screen helper
++and its command FIFO) are hoisted into the newly-mounted root file system.
++
++The final root file system cannot simply be mounted over /, since that would
++make the scripts and tools on the initial root file system inaccessible for any
++final cleanup tasks. On an initramfs, the initial root file system cannot be
++rotated away. Instead, it is simply emptied and the final root file system
++mounted over the top.
++
++= User Manual
++
++== Creating an initramfs Image
++To create a initramfs image, the most simple command is:
++----
++# dracut
++----
++
++This will generate a general purpose initramfs image, with all possible
++functionality resulting of the combination of the installed dracut modules and
++system tools. The image is /boot/initramfs-_++<kernel version>++_.img and
++contains the kernel modules of the currently active kernel with version
++_++<kernel version>++_.
++
++If the initramfs image already exists, dracut will display an error message, and
++to overwrite the existing image, you have to use the --force option.
++----
++# dracut --force
++----
++
++If you want to specify another filename for the resulting image you would issue
++a command like:
++----
++# dracut foobar.img
++----
++
++To generate an image for a specific kernel version, the command would be:
++----
++# dracut foobar.img 2.6.40-1.rc5.f20
++----
++
++A shortcut to generate the image at the default location for a specific kernel
++version is:
++----
++# dracut '' 2.6.40-1.rc5.f20
++----
++
++If you want to create lighter, smaller initramfs images, you may want to specify
++the --host-only or -H option. Using this option, the resulting image will
++contain only those dracut modules, kernel modules and filesystems, which are
++needed to boot this specific machine. This has the drawback, that you can't put
++the disk on another controller or machine, and that you can't switch to another
++root filesystem, without recreating the initramfs image. The usage of the
++--host-only option is only for experts and you will have to keep the broken
++pieces. At least keep a copy of a general purpose image (and corresponding
++kernel) as a fallback to rescue your system.
++
++=== Inspecting the Contents
++To see the contents of the image created by dracut, you can use the lsinitrd tool.
++----
++# lsinitrd /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img | less
++----
++
++To display the contents of a file in the initramfs also use the lsinitrd tool:
++----
++# lsinitrd /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img /etc/ld.so.conf
++include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
++----
++
++=== Adding dracut Modules
++Some dracut modules are turned off by default and have to be activated manually.
++You can do this by adding the dracut modules to the configuration file
++_/etc/dracut.conf_ or _/etc/dracut.conf.d/myconf.conf_. See <<dracutconf5>>.
++You can also add dracut modules on the command line
++by using the -a or --add option:
++----
++# dracut --add bootchart initramfs-bootchart.img
++----
++
++To see a list of available dracut modules, use the --list-modules option:
++----
++# dracut --list-modules
++----
++
++or, if you have a dracut version earlier than +008+, issue the command:
++----
++# for mod in /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/*; do echo ${mod##*/??}; done
++----
++
++=== Omitting dracut Modules
++Sometimes you don't want a dracut module to be included for reasons of speed,
++size or functionality. To do this, either specify the omit_dracutmodules
++variable in the _dracut.conf_ or _/etc/dracut.conf.d/myconf.conf_ configuration
++file (see <<dracutconf5>>), or use the -o or --omit option
++on the command line:
++----
++# dracut -o "multipath lvm" no-multipath-lvm.img
++----
++
++=== Adding Kernel Modules
++If you need a special kernel module in the initramfs, which is not
++automatically picked up by dracut, you have the use the --add-drivers option
++on the command line or the drivers vaiable in the _/etc/dracut.conf_
++or _/etc/dracut.conf.d/myconf.conf_ configuration file (see <<dracutconf5>>):
++----
++# dracut --add-drivers mymod initramfs-with-mymod.img
++----
++
++== Boot parameters
++The generated initramfs.img file normally does not contain any system
++configuration files (except for some special exceptions), so the configuration
++has to be done on the kernel command line. With this flexibility, you can easily
++boot from a changed root partition, without the need to recompile the initramfs
++image. So, you could completly change your root partition (move it inside a md
++raid with encryption and LVM on top), as long as you specify the correct
++filesystem LABEL or UUID on the kernel command line for your root device, dracut
++will find it and boot from it.
++
++The kernel command line usually can be configured in _/boot/grub/grub.conf_, if
++grub is your bootloader and it also can be edited in the real boot process in
++the grub menu.
++
++The kernel command line can also be provided by the dhcp server with the
++root-path option. See <<NetworkBoot>>.
++
++For a full reference of all kernel command line parameters, see <<dracut8>>.
++
++=== Specifying the root Device
++This is the only option dracut really needs to boot from your root partition.
++Because your root partition can live in various environments, there are a lot of
++formats for the root= option. The most basic one is root=_++<path to device
++node>++_:
++----
++root=/dev/sda2
++----
++
++Because device node names can change, dependent on the drive ordering, you are
++encouraged to use the filesystem identifier (UUID) or filesystem label (LABEL)
++to specify your root partition:
++----
++root=UUID=19e9dda3-5a38-484d-a9b0-fa6b067d0331
++----
++
++or
++
++----
++root=LABEL=myrootpartitionlabel
++----
++
++To see all UUIDs or LABELs on your system, do:
++----
++# ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid
++----
++
++or
++
++----
++# ls -l /dev/disk/by-label
++----
++
++If your root partition is on the network see <<NetworkBoot>>.
++
++=== Keyboard Settings
++If you have to input passwords for encrypted disk volumes, you might want to set
++the keyboard layout and specify a display font.
++
++A typical german kernel command would contain:
++----
++vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16 vconsole.keymap=de-latin1-nodeadkeys locale.LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
++----
++
++Setting these options can override the setting stored on your system, if you use
++a modern init system, like systemd.
++
++For dracut versions prior to version +008+ the line would look like:
++----
++LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=de-latin1-nodeadkeys
++----
++
++=== Blacklisting Kernel Modules
++Sometimes it is required to prevent the automatic kernel module loading of a
++specific kernel module. To do this, just add rd.blacklist=_++<kernel module
++name>++_, with _++<kernel module name>++_ not containing the _.ko_
++suffix, to the kernel command line. For example:
++----
++rd.driver.blacklist=mptsas rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau
++----
++
++The option can be specified multiple times on the kernel command line.
++
++=== Speeding up the Boot Process
++If you want to speed up the boot process, you can specify as much information
++for dracut on the kernel command as possible. For example, you can tell dracut,
++that you root partition is not on a LVM volume or not on a raid partition, or
++that it lives inside a specific crypto LUKS encrypted volume. By default, dracut
++searches everywhere. A typical dracut kernel command line for a plain primary or
++logical partition would contain:
++----
++rd.luks=0 rd.lvm=0 rd.md=0 rd.dm=0
++----
++
++On systems with dracut version prior to +008+ the line would look like:
++----
++rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM
++----
++
++This turns off every automatic assembly of LVM, MD raids, DM raids and crypto LUKS.
++
++Of course, you could also omit the dracut modules in the initramfs creation
++process, but then you would lose the posibility to turn it on on demand.
++
++
++[[Injecting]]
++=== Injecting custom Files
++To add your own files to the initramfs image, you have several possibilities.
++
++The --include option let you specify a source path and a target path. For example
++----
++# dracut --include cmdline-preset /etc/cmdline initramfs-cmdline-pre.img
++----
++will create an initramfs image, where the file cmdline-preset will be copied
++inside the initramfs to _/etc/cmdline_. --include can only be specified once.
++
++
++----
++# mkdir rd.live.overlay
++# mkdir rd.live.overlay/etc
++# mkdir rd.live.overlay/etc/conf.d
++# echo "ip=auto" >> rd.live.overlay/etc/cmdline
++# echo export TESTVAR=testtest >> rd.live.overlay/etc/conf.d/testvar.conf
++# echo export TESTVAR=testtest >> rd.live.overlay/etc/conf.d/testvar.conf
++# tree rd.live.overlay/
++rd.live.overlay/
++└── etc
++ ├── cmdline
++ └── conf.d
++ └── testvar.conf
++# dracut --include rd.live.overlay / initramfs-rd.live.overlay.img
++----
++
++This will put the contents of the rd.live.overlay directory into the root of the
++initramfs image.
++
++The --install option let you specify several files, which will get installed in
++the initramfs image at the same location, as they are present on initramfs
++creation time.
++
++
++----
++# dracut --install 'strace fsck.ext3 ssh' initramfs-dbg.img
++----
++
++This will create an initramfs with the strace, fsck.ext3 and ssh executables,
++together with the libraries needed to start those. The --install option can be
++specified multiple times.
++
++
++[[NetworkBoot]]
++== Network Boot
++
++If your root partition is on a network drive, you have to have the network
++dracut modules installed to create a network aware initramfs image.
++
++On a Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Fedora system, this means, you have to install
++the _dracut-network_ rpm package:
++
++
++----
++# yum install dracut-network
++----
++
++The resulting initramfs image can be served by a boot manager residing on your
++local hard drive or it can be served by a PXE/TFTP server.
++
++How to setup your PXE/TFTP server can be found in the
++http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/[Red
++Hat Enterprise Linux Storage Administration Guide].
++
++If you specify rd.ip=auto on the kernel command line, then dracut asks a dhcp
++server about the ip adress for the machine. The dhcp server can also serve an
++additional root-path, which will set the root device for dracut. With this
++mechanism, you have static configuration on your client machine and a
++centralized boot configuration on your TFTP/DHCP server. If you can't pass a
++kernel command line, then you can inject _/etc/cmdline_, with a method described
++in <<Injecting>>.
++
++
++
++
++=== Reducing the Image Size
++
++To reduce the size of the initramfs, you should create it with by ommitting all
++dracut modules, which you know, you don't need to boot the machine.
++
++You can also specify the exact dracut and kernel modules to produce a very tiny
++initramfs image.
++
++For example for a NFS image, you would do:
++
++
++----
++# dracut -m "nfs network base" initramfs-nfs-only.img
++----
++
++Then you would boot from this image with your target machine and reduce the size
++once more by creating it on the target machine with the --host-only option:
++
++
++----
++# dracut -m "nfs network base" --host-only initramfs-nfs-host-only.img
++----
++
++This will reduce the size of the initramfs image significantly.

++
++== Troubleshooting
++
++If the boot process does not succeed, you have several options to debug the
++situation. Some of the basic operations are covered here. For more information
++you should also visit:

++
++
++[[identifying-your-problem-area]]
++=== Identifying your problem area
++. Remove ''rhgb'' and ''quiet'' from the kernel command line
++. Add ''rd.shell'' to the kernel command line. This will present a shell should
++dracut be unable to locate your root device
++. Add ''rd.shell rd.debug log_buf_len=1M'' to the kernel command line so that
++dracut shell commands are printed as they are executed
++. With dracut >= 002-11, you can inspect the rd.debug output with:
+++
++----
++# less /run/initramfs/init.log
++# dmesg | less

++
++[[information-to-include-in-your-report]]
++=== Information to include in your report
++
++[[all-bug-reports]]
++==== All bug reports
++In all cases, the following should be mentioned and attached to your bug report:
++
++* The exact kernel command-line used. Typically from the bootloader
++configuration file (e.g. _/etc/grub.conf_) or from _/proc/cmdline_.
++* A copy of your disk partition information from _/etc/fstab_, which might be
++obtained booting an old working initramfs or a rescue medium.
++* A device listing from device-mapper. This can be obtained by running the
++command
+++
++----
++# dmsetup ls --tree
++----
+++
++* A list of block device attributes including vol_id compatible mode. This can
++be obtained by running the commands:
+++
++----
++# blkid -p
++# blkid -p -o udev
++----
++* Turn on dracut debugging (see _the 'debugging dracut' section_), and attach
++all relevant information from the boot log. This can be obtained by running the
++command
+++
++----
++# dmesg|grep dracut
++----
+++
++* If you use a dracut configuration file, please include _/etc/dracut.conf_ and
++all files in _/etc/dracut.conf.d/*.conf_
++
++[[logical-volume-management-related-problems]]
++==== Logical Volume Management related problems
++As well as the information from <<all-bug-reports>> include the following

++
++[[configure-a-serial-console]]
++==== Configure a serial console
++
++Successfully debugging dracut will require some form of console
++logging during the system boot. This section documents configuring a
++serial console connection to record boot messages.
++
++. First, enable serial console output for both the kernel and the bootloader.
++. Open the file _/etc/grub.conf_ for editing. Below the line ''timeout=5'', add
++the following:
+++
++----
++serial --unit=0 --speed=9600
++terminal --timeout=5 serial console
++----
+++
++. Also in _/etc/grub.conf_, add the following boot arguemnts to the ''kernel''
++line:
+++
++----
++console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600
++----
+++
++. When finished, the _/etc/grub.conf_ file should look similar to the example
++below.
+++
++----
++default=0
++timeout=5
++serial --unit=0 --speed=9600
++terminal --timeout=5 serial console

+++
++. More detailed information on how to configure the kernel for console output
++can be found at
++http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Remote-Serial-Console-HOWTO.html#CONFIGURE-KERNEL.
++. Redirecting non-interactive output
+++
++--
++NOTE: You can redirect all non-interactive output to _/dev/kmsg_ and the kernel
++will put it out on the console when it reaches the kernel buffer by doing
++
++----
++# exec >/dev/kmsg 2>&1 </dev/console
++----
++--
++
++[[using-the-dracut-shell]]
++==== Using the dracut shell
++
++Dracut offers a shell for interactive debugging in the event dracut fails to
++locate your root filesystem. To enable the shell:
++
++. Add the boot parameter ''rd.shell'' to your bootloader configuration file
++(e.g. _/etc/grub.conf_)
++. Remove the boot arguments ''rhgb'' and ''quiet''
+++
++A sample _/etc/grub.conf_ bootloader configuration file is listed below.
+++
++----
++default=0
++timeout=5
++serial --unit=0 --speed=9600
++terminal --timeout=5 serial console

++
++[[accessing-the-root-volume-from-the-dracut-shell]]
++==== Accessing the root volume from the dracut shell
++From the dracut debug shell, you can manually perform the task of locating and
++preparing your root volume for boot. The required steps will depend on how your
++root volume is configured. Common scenarios include:
++
++* A block device (e.g. _/dev/sda7_)
++* A LVM logical volume (e.g. _/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00_)
++* An encrypted device (e.g. _/dev/mapper/luks-4d5972ea-901c-4584-bd75-1da802417d83_)
++* A network attached device (e.g. netroot=iscsi:@192.168.0.4::3260::iqn.2009-02.org.fedoraproject:for.all)
++
++The exact method for locating and preparing will vary. However, to continue with
++a successful boot, the objective is to locate your root volume and create a
++symlink _/dev/root_ which points to the file system. For example, the following
++example demonstrates accessing and booting a root volume that is an encrypted
++LVM Logical volume.

++
++== dracut Components
++
++dracut uses a modular system to build and extend the initramfs image. All
++modules are located in _/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d_ or in _<git-src>/modules.d_.
++The most basic dracut module is _99base_. In _99base_ the initial shell script
++init is defined, which gets run by the kernel after initramfs loading. Although
++you can replace init with your own version of _99base_, this is not encouraged.
++Instead you should use, if possible, the hooks of dracut. All hooks, and the
++point of time in which they are executed, are described in <<stages>>.
++
++The main script, which creates the initramfs is dracut itsself. It parses all
++arguments and sets up the directory, in which everything is installed. It then
++executes all check, install, installkernel scripts found in the modules, which
++are to be processed. After everything is installed, the install directory is
++archived and compressed to the final initramfs image. All helper functions used
++by check, install and installkernel are found in in the file _dracut-functions_.
++These shell functions are available to all module installer (install,
++installkernel) scripts, without the need to source _dracut-functions_.
++
++A module can check the preconditions for install and installkernel with the
++check script. Also dependencies can be expressed with check. If a module passed
++check, install and installkernel will be called to install all of the necessary
++files for the module. To split between kernel and non-kernel parts of the
++installation, all kernel module related parts have to be in installkernel. All
++other files found in a module directory are module specific and mostly are hook
++scripts and udev rules.
++
++
++[[stages]]
++== Boot Process Stages
++
++The init script in _99base_ is the main script, which prepares the root file
++system for usage, runs udev, mounts the real root device, kills the remaining
++processes, and switches to the real root device for further booting. dracut
++modules can insert custom script at various points, to control the boot process.
++These hooks are plain directories containing shell scripts ending with ".sh",
++which are sourced by init.
++Common used functions are in _dracut-lib.sh_, which can be sourced by any script.
++
++
++
++=== Basic Setup
++
++The first thing init does, is to mount _/proc_ and _/sys_ and manually create
++the basic device nodes and symbolic links in _/dev_ needed to execute basic
++commands. Then logging is setup according to kernel command line arguments.
++_/dev/pts_ and _/dev/shm_ are mounted and the first hook is sourced.
++
++
++
++=== Hook: cmdline
++
++The _cmdline_ hook is a place to insert scripts to parse the kernel command line
++and prepare the later actions, like setting up udev rules and configuration
++files.
++
++In this hook the most important environment variable is defined: root. The
++second one is rootok, which indicates, that a module claimed to be able to parse
++the root defined. So for example, **root=**__iscsi:....__ will be claimed by the
++iscsi dracut module, which then sets rootok.
++
++=== Hook: pre-udev
++
++This hook is executed right after the cmdline hook and a check if root and
++rootok were set. Here modules can take action with the final root, and before
++udev has been run.
++
++
++
++=== Start Udev
++
++Now udev is started and the logging for udev is setup.
++
++
++
++=== Hook: pre-trigger
++
++In this hook, you can set udev environment variables with **udevadm control
++--property=KEY=_value_** or control the further execution of udev with
++udevadm.
++
++
++
++=== Trigger Udev
++
++udev is triggered by calling udevadm trigger, which sends add events for all
++devices and subsystems.
++
++
++
++=== Main Loop
++
++Now the main loop of 99base/init begins. Here we loop until udev has settled and
++all scripts in _initqueue/finished_ returned true. In this loop there are three
++hooks, where scripts can be inserted by calling /sbin/initqueue.
++
++
++
++==== Initqueue
++
++This hook gets executed every time a script is inserted here, regardless of the
++udev state.
++
++
++
++==== Initqueue settled
++
++This hooks gets executed every time udev has settled.
++
++
++
++==== Initqueue timeout
++
++This hooks gets executed, when the main loop counter becomes half of the
++rd.retry counter.
++
++
++
++==== Initqueue finished
++
++This hook is called after udev has settled and if all scripts herein return 0
++the main loop will be ended.
++
++
++
++=== Hook: pre-mount
++
++Before the root device is mounted all scripts in the hook pre-mount are
++executed. In some cases (e.g. NFS) the real root device is already mounted,
++though.
++
++
++
++=== Hook: mount
++
++This hook is mainly to mount the real root device.
++
++
++
++=== Hook: pre-pivot
++
++This hook is the last hook and is called before init finally switches root to
++the real root device. This is a good place to clean up and kill processes not
++needed anymore.
++
++
++
++=== Cleanup and switch_root
++
++Init kills all udev processes, cleans up the environment, sets up the arguments
++for the real init process and finally calls switch_root. switch_root removes the
++whole filesystem hierarchy of the initramfs, chroot()s to the real root device
++and calls /sbin/init with the specified arguments.
++
++To ensure all files in the initramfs hierarchy can be removed, all processes
++still running from the initramfs should not have any open file descriptors left.
++
++
++
++== Network Infrastructure
++
++
++FIXME
++
++
++== Writing a Module
++
++A simple example module is _96insmodpost_, which modprobes a kernel module after
++udev has settled and the basic device drivers have been loaded.
++
++All module installation information is in the file module-setup.sh.
++
++First we create a check() function, which just exits with 0 indicating that this
++module should be included by default.
++
++check():
++
++
++----
++return 0
++----
++
++The we create the install() function, which installs a cmdline hook with
++priority number 20 called _parse-insmodpost.sh_. It also installs the
++_insmodpost.sh_ script in _/sbin_.
++
++install():
++
++
++----
++inst_hook cmdline 20 "$moddir/parse-insmodpost.sh"
++inst_simple "$moddir/insmodpost.sh" /sbin/insmodpost.sh
++----
++
++The _pase-instmodpost.sh_ parses the kernel command line for a argument
++rd.driver.post, blacklists the module from being autoloaded and installs the
++hook _insmodpost.sh_ in the _initqueue/settled_.
++
++_parse-insmodpost.sh_:
++
++
++----
++for p in $(getargs rd.driver.post=); do
++ echo "blacklist $p" >> /etc/modprobe.d/initramfsblacklist.conf
++ _do_insmodpost=1
++done
++
++[ -n "$_do_insmodpost" ] && /sbin/initqueue --settled --unique --onetime /sbin/insmodpost.sh
++unset _do_insmodpost
++
++----
++
++_insmodpost.sh_, which is called in the _initqueue/settled_ hook will just
++modprobe the kernel modules specified in all rd.driver.post kernel command line
++parameters. It runs after udev has settled and is only called once (--onetime).
++
++_insmodpost.sh_:
++
++
++----
++. /lib/dracut-lib.sh
++
++for p in $(getargs rd.driver.post=); do
++ modprobe $p
++done
++
++----
++
++
++
++=== check()
++
++_check()_ is called by dracut to evaluate the inclusion of a dracut module in
++the initramfs.
++
++$hostonly:: If the $hostonly variable is set, then the module check() function
++should be in "hostonly" mode, which means, that the check() should only return
++0, if the module is really needed to boot this specific host.
++
++check() should return with:
++
++0:: Include the dracut module in the initramfs.
++
++1:: Do not include the dracut module. The requirements are not fullfilled
++(missing tools, etc.)
++
++255:: Only include the dracut module, if another module requires it or if
++explicitly specified in the config file or on the argument list.
++
++
++
++=== depends()
++
++The function depends() should echo all other dracut module names the module
++depends on.

++NAME
++----
++dracut.cmdline - dracut kernel command line options
++
++DESCRIPTION
++-----------
++The root device used by the kernel is specified in the boot configuration
++file on the kernel command line, as always.
++
++The traditional _root=/dev/sda1_ style device specification is allowed, but not
++encouraged. The root device should better be identified by LABEL or UUID. If a
++label is used, as in _root=LABEL=<label_of_root>_ the initramfs will search all
++available devices for a filesystem with the appropriate label, and mount that
++device as the root filesystem. _root=UUID=<uuidnumber>_ will mount the partition
++with that UUID as the root filesystem.
++
++In the following all kernel command line parameters, which are processed by
++dracut, are described.
++
++"rd.*" parameters mentioned without "=" are boolean parameters. They can be
++turned on/off by setting them to {0|1}. If the assignment with "=" is missing
++"=1" is implied. For example _rd.info_ can be turned off with _rd.info=0_ or
++turned on with _rd.info=1_ or _rd.info_. The last value in the kernel command
++line is the value, which is honored.
++
++Standard

++ _keypath_ is a path to key file to look for. It's REQUIRED. When _keypath_ ends with '.gpg' it's considered to be key encrypted symmetrically with GPG. You will be prompted for password on boot. GPG support comes with 'crypt-gpg' module which needs to be added explicitly.
+++
++_keydev_ is a device on which key file resides. It might be kernel name of devices (should start with "/dev/"), UUID (prefixed with "UUID=") or label (prefix with "LABEL="). You don't have to specify full UUID. Just its beginning will suffice, even if its ambiguous. All matching devices will be probed. This parameter is recommended, but not required. If not present, all block devices will be probed, which may significantly increase boot time.
+++
++If _luksdev_ is given, the specified key will only be applied for that LUKS device. Possible values are the same as for _keydev_. Unless you have several LUKS devices, you don't have to specify this parameter. The simplest usage is:

GPG support comes with 'crypt-gpg' module which needs to be added explicitly.</para>
+- <para><replaceable>keydev</replaceable> is a device on which key file resides. It might be kernel name of devices (should start with "/dev/"), UUID (prefixed with "UUID=") or label (prefix with "LABEL="). You don't have to specify full UUID. Just its beginning will suffice, even if its ambiguous. All matching devices will be probed. This parameter is recommended, but not required. If not present, all block devices will be probed, which may significantly increase boot time.</para>
+- <para>If <replaceable>luksdev</replaceable> is given, the specified key will only be applied for that LUKS device. Possible values are the same as for <replaceable>keydev</replaceable>. Unless you have several LUKS devices, you don't have to specify this parameter.</para>

++parameter will overwrite any values set here. _dracut.conf.d/*.conf_ files are
++read in alphanumerical order and will overwrite parameters set in
++_/etc/dracut.conf_. Each line specifies an attribute and a value. A '#'
++indicates the beginning of a comment; following characters, up to the end of the
++line are not interpreted.
++
++*dracutmodules+=*" __<dracut modules>__ "::
++ Specify a space-separated list of dracut modules to call when building the
++ initramfs. Modules are located in _/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d_.
++
++*omit_dracutmodules+=*" __<dracut modules>__ "::
++ Omit a space-separated list of dracut modules.
++
++*add_dracutmodules+=*" __<dracut modules>__ "::
++ Add a space-separated list of dracut modules.

++ The kernel modules have to be specified without the ".ko" suffix.
++
++*omit_drivers+=*" __<kernel modules>__ "::
++ Specify a space-separated list of kernel modules not to add to the
++ initramfs. The kernel modules have to be specified without the ".ko" suffix.
++
++*install_items+=*" __<kernel modules>__ "::
++ Specify a space-separated list of files, which are added to the initramfs
++ image.
++
++*filesystems+=*" __<filesystem names>__ "::
++ Specify a space-separated list of kernel filesystem modules to exclusively
++ include in the generic initramfs.
++
++*drivers_dir=*"__<kernel modules directory>__"::
++ Specify the directory, where to look for kernel modules

++*fw_dir+=*" :__<dir>__[:__<dir>__ ...] "::
++ Specify additional directories, where to look for firmwares, separated by :
++
++*install_items+=*" __<file>__[ __<file>__ ...] "::
++ Specify additional files to include in the initramfs, separated by spaces.
++
++*do_strip=*"__{yes|no}__"::
++ Strip binaries in the initramfs (default=yes)
++
++*hostonly=*"__{yes|no}__"::
++ Host-Only mode: Install only what is needed for booting the local host instead of a generic host.
++
++[WARNING]
++====
++If chrooted to another root other than the real root device, use --fstab and provide a valid _/etc/fstab_.
++====
++
++*use_fstab=*"__{yes|no}__"::
++ Use _/etc/fstab_ instead of _/proc/self/mountinfo_.

++
++*show_modules=*"__{yes|no}__"::
++ Print included module's name to standard output during build.
++
++Files
++-----
++_/etc/dracut.conf_::
++ Old configuration file. You better use your own file in
++ _/etc/dracut/conf.d/_.
++

+- <title>Introduction</title>
+- <section>
+- <title>Definition</title>
+- <para>An <emphasis>initial ramdisk</emphasis> is a temporary file system used in the boot process of the Linux kernel. <emphasis>initrd</emphasis> and <emphasis>initramfs</emphasis> refer to slightly different schemes for loading this file system into memory. Both are commonly used to make preparations before the real root file system can be mounted.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Rationale </title>
+- <para>Many Linux distributions ship a single, generic kernel image that is intended to boot as wide a variety of hardware as possible. The device drivers for this generic kernel image are included as loadable modules, as it is not possible to statically compile them all into the one kernel without making it too large to boot from computers with limited memory or from lower-capacity media like floppy disks.
+- </para>
+- <para>This then raises the problem of detecting and loading the modules necessary to mount the root file system at boot time (or, for that matter, deducing where or what the root file system is).
+- </para>
+- <para>To further complicate matters, the root file system may be on a software <acronym>RAID</acronym> volume, <acronym>LVM</acronym>, <acronym>NFS</acronym> (on diskless workstations), or on an encrypted partition. All of these require special preparations to mount.
+- </para>
+- <para>Another complication is kernel support for hibernation, which suspends the computer to disk by dumping an image of the entire system to a swap partition or a regular file, then powering off. On next boot, this image has to be made accessible before it can be loaded back into memory. </para>
+- <para>To avoid having to hardcode handling for so many special cases into the kernel, an initial boot stage with a temporary root file system—now dubbed early user space—is used. This root file system would contain user-space helpers that would do the hardware detection, module loading and device discovery necessary to get the real root file system mounted.
+- </para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Implementation </title>
+- <para>An image of this initial root file system (along with the kernel image) must be stored somewhere accessible by the Linux bootloader or the boot firmware of the computer. This can be: </para>

+- <para>The bootloader will load the kernel and initial root file system image into memory and then start the kernel, passing in the memory address of the image.
+- </para>
+- <para>Depending on which algorithms were compiled statically into it, the kernel can currently unpack initrd/initramfs images compressed with gzip, bzip2 and <acronym>LZMA</acronym>. </para>

+- <title>Mount preparations </title>
+- <para>dracut can generate a customized initrams image which contains only whatever is necessary to boot some particular computer, such as <acronym>ATA</acronym>, <acronym>SCSI</acronym> and filesystem kernel modules (host-only mode).</para>
+- <para>dracut can also generate a more generic initramfs image (default mode). </para>
+- <para>dracut's initramfs starts only with the device name of the root file system (or its <acronym>UUID</acronym>) and must discover everything else at boot time. A complex cascade of tasks must be performed to get the root file system mounted: </para>
+- <itemizedlist>
+- <listitem>
+- <para>Any hardware drivers that the boot process depends on must be loaded. All kernel modules for common storage devices are packed onto the initramfs and then udev pulls in modules matching the computer's detected hardware. </para>

+- <para>dracut uses udev, an event-driven hotplug agent, which invokes helper programs as hardware devices, disk partitions and storage volumes matching certain rules come online. This allows discovery to run in parallel, and to progressively cascade into arbitrary nestings of <acronym>LVM</acronym>, <acronym>RAID</acronym> or encryption to get at the root file system. </para>

+- <para>Any processes which must continue running (such as the rd.splash screen helper and its command <acronym>FIFO</acronym>) are hoisted into the newly-mounted root file system. </para>
+- </listitem>
+- </itemizedlist></para>
+- <para>The final root file system cannot simply be mounted over /, since that would make the scripts and tools on the initial root file system inaccessible for any final cleanup tasks. On an initramfs, the initial root file system cannot be rotated away. Instead, it is simply emptied and the final root file system mounted over the top.

+- <title>Creating an initramfs Image</title>
+- <para>To create a initramfs image, the most simple command is:</para>
+- <screen># dracut</screen>
+- <para>This will generate a general purpose initramfs image, with all possible functionality resulting of the combination of the installed dracut modules and system tools. The image is /boot/initramfs-<replaceable><kernel version></replaceable>.img and contains the kernel modules of the currently active kernel with version <replaceable><kernel version></replaceable>.</para>
+- <para>If the initramfs image already exists, dracut will display an error message, and to overwrite the existing image, you have to use the <option>--force</option> option. </para>
+- <screen># dracut --force</screen>
+- <para>If you want to specify another filename for the resulting image you would issue a command like:</para>
+- <screen># dracut foobar.img</screen>
+- <para>To generate an image for a specific kernel version, the command would be:</para>
+- <screen># dracut foobar.img 2.6.40-1.rc5.f20</screen>
+- <para>A shortcut to generate the image at the default location for a specific kernel version is:</para>
+- <screen># dracut '' 2.6.40-1.rc5.f20</screen>
+- <para>If you want to create lighter, smaller initramfs images, you may want to specify the <option>--host-only</option> or <option>-H</option> option. Using this option, the resulting image will contain only those dracut modules, kernel modules and filesystems, which are needed to boot this specific machine. This has the drawback, that you can't put the disk on another controller or machine, and that you can't switch to another root filesystem, without recreating the initramfs image. The usage of the <option>--host-only</option> option is only for experts and you will have to keep the broken pieces. At least keep a copy of a general purpose image (and corresponding kernel) as a fallback to rescue your system.</para>
+- <section>
+- <title>Inspecting the Contents</title>
+- <para>To see the contents of the image created by dracut, you can use the <command>lsinitrd</command> tool.</para>
+- <screen># lsinitrd /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img | less</screen>
+- <para>To display the contents of a file in the initramfs also use the <command>lsinitrd</command> tool:</para>
+- <screen># lsinitrd /boot/initramfs-$(uname -r).img /etc/ld.so.conf
+-include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf</screen>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Adding dracut Modules</title>
+- <para>Some dracut modules are turned off by default and have to be activated manually. You can do this by adding the dracut modules to the configuration file <filename>/etc/dracut.conf</filename> or <filename>/etc/dracut.conf.d/myconf.conf</filename>. See the man page <xref linkend="dracutconf5"/>. You can also add dracut modules on the command line by using the <option>-a</option> or <option>--add</option> option:</para>
+- <screen># dracut --add bootchart initramfs-bootchart.img</screen>
+- <para>To see a list of available dracut modules, use the <option>--list-modules</option> option:</para>
+- <screen># dracut --list-modules</screen>
+- <para>or, if you have a dracut version earlier than <literal>008</literal>, issue the command:</para>
+- <screen># for mod in /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/*; do echo ${mod##*/??}; done</screen>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Omitting dracut Modules</title>
+- <para>Sometimes you don't want a dracut module to be included for reasons of speed, size or functionality. To do this, either specify the <envar>omit_dracutmodules</envar> variable in the <filename>dracut.conf</filename> or <filename>/etc/dracut.conf.d/myconf.conf</filename> configuration file (see man page <xref linkend="dracutconf5"/>), or use the <option>-o</option> or <option>--omit</option> option on the command line:</para>
+- <screen># dracut -o "multipath lvm" no-multipath-lvm.img</screen>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Adding Kernel Modules</title>
+- <para>If you need a special kernel module in the initramfs, which is not automatically picked up by dracut, you have the use the <option>--add-drivers</option> option on the command line or the drivers vaiable in the <filename>/etc/dracut.conf</filename> or <filename>/etc/dracut.conf.d/myconf.conf</filename> configuration file (see man page <xref linkend="dracutconf5"/>):</para>
+- <screen># dracut --add-drivers mymod initramfs-with-mymod.img</screen>
+- </section>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Boot parameters</title>
+- <para>The generated initramfs.img file normally does not contain any system configuration files (except for some special exceptions), so the configuration has to be done on the kernel command line. With this flexibility, you can easily boot from a changed root partition, without the need to recompile the initramfs image. So, you could completly change your root partition (move it inside a md raid with encryption and LVM on top), as long as you specify the correct filesystem <varname>LABEL</varname> or <varname>UUID</varname> on the kernel command line for your root device, dracut will find it and boot from it.</para>
+- <para>The kernel command line usually can be configured in <filename>/boot/grub/grub.conf</filename>, if grub is your bootloader and it also can be edited in the real boot process in the grub menu.</para>
+- <para>The kernel command line can also be provided by the dhcp server with the root-path option. See <xref linkend="NetworkBoot"/>.</para>
+- <para>For a full reference of all kernel command line parameters, see the <xref linkend="dracutconf5"/> or <xref linkend="dracut8"/> man page.</para>
+- <section>
+- <title>Specifying the root Device</title>
+- <para>This is the only option dracut really needs to boot from your root partition. Because your root partition can live in various environments, there are a lot of formats for the <envar>root=</envar> option. The most basic one is <envar>root=<replaceable><path to device node></replaceable></envar>:</para>
+- <screen>root=/dev/sda2</screen>
+- <para>Because device node names can change, dependent on the drive ordering, you are encouraged to use the filesystem identifier (UUID) or filesystem label (LABEL) to specify your root partition:</para>
+- <screen>root=UUID=19e9dda3-5a38-484d-a9b0-fa6b067d0331</screen>
+- <para>or</para>
+- <screen>root=LABEL=myrootpartitionlabel</screen>
+- <para>To see all <envar>UUID</envar>s or <envar>LABEL</envar>s on your system, do:</para>
+- <screen># ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid</screen>
+- <para>or</para>
+- <screen># ls -l /dev/disk/by-label</screen>
+- <para>If your root partition is on the network see <xref linkend="NetworkBoot"/>.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Keyboard Settings</title>
+- <para>If you have to input passwords for encrypted disk volumes, you might want to set the keyboard layout and specify a display font.</para>
+- <para>A typical german kernel command would contain:</para>
+- <screen>vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16 vconsole.keymap=de-latin1-nodeadkeys locale.LANG=de_DE.UTF-8</screen>
+- <para>Setting these options can override the setting stored on your system, if you use a modern init system, like systemd.</para>
+- <para>For dracut versions prior to version <literal>008</literal> the line would look like:</para>
+- <screen>LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=de-latin1-nodeadkeys</screen>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Blacklisting Kernel Modules</title>
+- <para>Sometimes it is required to prevent the automatic kernel module loading of a specific kernel module. To do this, just add <envar>rd.blacklist=<replaceable><kernel module name></replaceable></envar>, with <replaceable><kernel module name></replaceable> not containing the <filename>.ko</filename> suffix, to the kernel command line. For example:</para>
+- <screen>rd.blacklist=mptsas rd.blacklist=nouveau</screen>
+- <para>The option can be specified multiple times on the kernel command line.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Speeding up the Boot Process</title>
+- <para>If you want to speed up the boot process, you can specify as much information for dracut on the kernel command as possible. For example, you can tell dracut, that you root partition is not on a <acronym>LVM</acronym> volume or not on a raid partition, or that it lives inside a specific crypto <acronym>LUKS</acronym> encrypted volume. By default, dracut searches everywhere. A typical dracut kernel command line for a plain primary or logical partition would contain:</para>
+- <screen>rd.luks=0 rd.lvm=0 rd.md=0 rd.dm=0</screen>
+- <para>on systems with dracut version prior to <literal>008</literal> the line would look like:</para>
+- <screen>rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM</screen>
+- <para>This turns off every automatic assembly of <acronym>LVM</acronym>, <acronym>MD</acronym> raids, <acronym>DM</acronym> raids and crypto <acronym>LUKS</acronym>.</para>
+- <para>Of course, you could also omit the dracut modules in the initramfs creation process, but then you would lose the posibility to turn it on on demand.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section id="Injecting">
+- <title>Injecting custom Files</title>
+- <para>To add your own files to the initramfs image, you have several possibilities.</para>
+- <para>The <option>--include</option> option let you specify a source path and a target path. For example</para>
+- <screen># dracut --include cmdline-preset /etc/cmdline initramfs-cmdline-pre.img</screen>
+- <para>will create an initramfs image, where the file cmdline-preset will be copied inside the initramfs to <filename>/etc/cmdline</filename>. <option>--include</option> can only be specified once.</para>
+- <screen># mkdir rd.live.overlay
+-# mkdir rd.live.overlay/etc
+-# mkdir rd.live.overlay/etc/conf.d
+-# echo "ip=auto" >> rd.live.overlay/etc/cmdline
+-# echo export TESTVAR=testtest >> rd.live.overlay/etc/conf.d/testvar.conf
+-# echo export TESTVAR=testtest >> rd.live.overlay/etc/conf.d/testvar.conf
+-# tree rd.live.overlay/

+-└── etc
+- ├── cmdline
+- └── conf.d
+- └── testvar.conf
+-# dracut --include rd.live.overlay / initramfs-rd.live.overlay.img</screen>
+- <para>This will put the contents of the rd.live.overlay directory into the root of the initramfs image.</para>
+- <para>The <option>--install</option> option let you specify several files, which will get installed in the initramfs image at the same location, as they are present on initramfs creation time.</para>
+- <screen># dracut --install 'strace fsck.ext3 ssh' initramfs-dbg.img</screen>
+- <para>This will create an initramfs with the <command>strace</command>, <command>fsck.ext3</command> and <command>ssh</command> executables, together with the libraries needed to start those. The <option>--install</option> option can be specified multiple times.</para>
+- </section>
+- </section>
+- <section id="NetworkBoot">
+- <title>Network Boot</title>
+- <para>If your root partition is on a network drive, you have to have the network dracut modules installed to create a network aware initramfs image.</para>
+- <para>On a Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Fedora system, this means, you have to install the <filename>dracut-network</filename> rpm package:</para>
+- <screen># yum install dracut-network</screen>
+- <para>The resulting initramfs image can be served by a boot manager residing on your local hard drive or it can be served by a <acronym>PXE</acronym>/<acronym>TFTP</acronym> server.</para>
+- <para>How to setup your <acronym>PXE</acronym>/<acronym>TFTP</acronym> server can be found in the <ulink url="http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/">Red Hat Enterprise Linux Storage Administration Guide</ulink>.</para>
+- <para>If you specify <envar>rd.ip=auto</envar> on the kernel command line, then dracut asks a dhcp server about the ip adress for the machine. The dhcp server can also serve an additional root-path, which will set the root device for dracut. With this mechanism, you have static configuration on your client machine and a centralized boot configuration on your <acronym>TFTP</acronym>/<acronym>DHCP</acronym> server. If you can't pass a kernel command line, then you can inject <filename>/etc/cmdline</filename>, with a method described in <xref linkend="Injecting"/>.

+- <title>Reducing the Image Size</title>
+- <para>To reduce the size of the initramfs, you should create it with by ommitting all dracut modules, which you know, you don't need to boot the machine.</para>
+- <para>You can also specify the exact dracut and kernel modules to produce a very tiny initramfs image.</para>
+- <para>For example for a <acronym>NFS</acronym> image, you would do:</para>
+- <screen># dracut -m "nfs network base" initramfs-nfs-only.img</screen>
+- <para>Then you would boot from this image with your target machine and reduce the size once more by creating it on the target machine with the <option>--host-only</option> option:</para>
+- <screen># dracut -m "nfs network base" --host-only initramfs-nfs-host-only.img</screen>

+- <title>dracut Components</title>
+- <para>dracut uses a modular system to build and extend the initramfs image. All modules are located in <filename>/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d</filename> or in <filename><replaceable><git-src></replaceable>/modules.d</filename>. The most basic dracut module is <filename>99base</filename>. In <filename>99base</filename> the initial shell script <command>init</command> is defined, which gets run by the kernel after initramfs loading. Although you can replace <command>init</command> with your own version of <filename>99base</filename>, this is not encouraged. Instead you should use, if possible, the hooks of dracut. All hooks, and the point of time in which they are executed, are described in <xref linkend="stages"/>.</para>
+- <para>The main script, which creates the initramfs is <command>dracut</command> itsself. It parses all arguments and sets up the directory, in which everything is installed. It then executes all <command>check</command>, <command>install</command>, <command>installkernel</command> scripts found in the modules, which are to be processed. After everything is installed, the install directory is archived and compressed to the final initramfs image. All helper functions used by <command>check</command>, <command>install</command> and <command>installkernel</command> are found in in the file <filename>dracut-functions</filename>. These shell functions are available to all module installer (<command>install</command>, <command>installkernel</command>) scripts, without the need to source <filename>dracut-functions</filename>.</para>
+- <para>A module can check the preconditions for <command>install</command> and <command>installkernel</command> with the <command>check</command> script. Also dependencies can be expressed with <command>check</command>. If a module passed <command>check</command>, <command>install</command> and <command>installkernel</command> will be called to install all of the necessary files for the module. To split between kernel and non-kernel parts of the installation, all kernel module related parts have to be in <command>installkernel</command>. All other files found in a module directory are module specific and mostly are hook scripts and udev rules.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section id="stages">
+- <title>Boot Process Stages</title>
+- <para>The <command>init</command> script in <filename>99base</filename> is the main script, which prepares the root file system for usage, runs udev, mounts the real root device, kills the remaining processes, and switches to the real root device for further booting. dracut modules can insert custom script at various points, to control the boot process. These hooks are plain directories containing shell scripts ending with ".sh", which are sourced by <command>init</command>.
+-Common used functions are in <filename>dracut-lib.sh</filename>, which can be sourced by any script. </para>
+- <section>
+- <title>Basic Setup</title>
+- <para>The first thing <command>init</command> does, is to mount <filename>/proc</filename> and <filename>/sys</filename> and manually create the basic device nodes and symbolic links in <filename>/dev</filename> needed to execute basic commands. Then logging is setup according to kernel command line arguments. <filename>/dev/pts</filename> and <filename>/dev/shm</filename> are mounted and the first hook is sourced.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Hook: cmdline</title>
+- <para>The <literal>
+- <function>cmdline</function>
+- </literal> hook is a place to insert scripts to parse the kernel command line and prepare the later actions, like setting up udev rules and configuration files.</para>
+- <para>In this hook the most important environment variable is defined: <envar>root</envar>. The second one is <envar>rootok</envar>, which indicates, that a module claimed to be able to parse the <envar>root</envar> defined. So for example, <envar>root=</envar><replaceable>iscsi:....</replaceable> will be claimed by the <function>iscsi</function> dracut module, which then sets <envar>rootok</envar>.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Hook: pre-udev</title>
+- <para>This hook is executed right after the <function>cmdline</function> hook and a check if <envar>root</envar> and <envar>rootok</envar> were set. Here modules can take action with the final <envar>root</envar>, and before <command>udev</command> has been run.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Start Udev</title>
+- <para>Now <command>udev</command> is started and the logging for <command>udev</command> is setup.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Hook: pre-trigger</title>
+- <para>In this hook, you can set udev environment variables with <code>udevadm control --property=<envar>KEY</envar>=<replaceable>value</replaceable></code> or control the further execution of <command>udev</command> with <command>udevadm</command>.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Trigger Udev</title>
+- <para><command>udev</command> is triggered by calling <command>udevadm trigger</command>, which sends <constant>add</constant> events for all devices and subsystems.
+- </para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Main Loop</title>
+- <para>Now the main loop of <command>99base/init</command> begins. Here we loop until <command>udev</command> has settled and all scripts in <filename>initqueue/finished</filename> returned true. In this loop there are three hooks, where scripts can be inserted by calling <command>/sbin/initqueue</command>.
+- </para>
+- <section>
+- <title>Initqueue</title>
+- <para>This hook gets executed every time a script is inserted here, regardless of the <command>udev</command> state.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Initqueue settled</title>
+- <para>This hooks gets executed every time <command>udev</command> has settled.</para>

+- <para>This hooks gets executed, when the main loop counter becomes half of the rd.retry counter.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Initqueue finished</title>
+- <para>This hook is called after <command>udev</command> has settled and if all scripts herein return <errorcode>0</errorcode> the main loop will be ended.</para>
+- </section>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Hook: pre-mount</title>
+- <para>Before the root device is mounted all scripts in the hook pre-mount are executed. In some cases (e.g. <acronym>NFS</acronym>) the real root device is already mounted, though.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Hook: mount</title>
+- <para>This hook is mainly to mount the real root device.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Hook: pre-pivot</title>
+- <para>This hook is the last hook and is called before init finally switches root to the real root device. This is a good place to clean up and kill processes not needed anymore.</para>
+- </section>
+- <section>
+- <title>Cleanup and switch_root</title>
+- <para>Init kills all <command>udev</command> processes, cleans up the environment, sets up the arguments for the real <command>init</command> process and finally calls <command>switch_root</command>. <command>switch_root</command> removes the whole filesystem hierarchy of the initramfs, chroot()s to the real root device and calls <command>/sbin/init</command> with the specified arguments.</para>
+- <para>To ensure all files in the initramfs hierarchy can be removed, all processes still running from the initramfs should not have any open file descriptors left.</para>

++- initqueue/online is now for hooks, which require network
++- no more /tmp/root.info
++- 98pollcdrom: factored out the ugly cdrom polling in the main loop
++- simplified rd.luks.uuid testing
++- removed "egrep" and "ls" calls
++- speedup kernel module installation
++- make bzip2 optional
++- lots of bugfixes

+Subject: [PATCH] Make sure 'set -x' gets turned back on in wait_for_loginit
+
+wait_for_loginit does set +x (to turn off debugging temporarily), but
+sometimes it would return before turning it back on. Move the set +x
+line to fix that, then use 'setdebug' to make sure we don't turn it back
+on unless it was needed.

+Subject: [PATCH] Avoid use of "export -n"
+
+"export -n" is a bash extension, not part of POSIX, and is hence
+incompatible with the busybox shell.
+
+This was breaking boot when the busybox module was used.
+
+Reimplement the scope change in a few lines of standard shell code.

+
+Because nbd-server also provides name-based exports instead of
+port-based ones, make it possible to connect to those.
