i am same way. so i use 'tag' in firefox bookmarks.

then, when i want to find what i recall reading about, i use bookmarks
'search' to save 'strain on the brain'. this way, i only have to recall
what tag i used. ;-)


did you note at begining;

 New Kernel Command Line Parameters
 read the dracut.kernel.7 man page.

   http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/dracut/dracut.html#dracut.kernel

specifically;

 A. Man Pages

    dracut
        dracut — create initial ramdisk images for preloading modules

    dracut.conf
        dracut.conf — configuration file(s) for dracut

    dracut.cmdline
        dracut.cmdline — dracut kernel command line options

  http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/dracut/dracut.html#dracutkernel7
