Is the plan to basically migrate to entirely pre-built "generic"
"initrd" initramfs pre-built image files then? Will we even be
generating the kernel specific stuff in the future?
Jon.
That was the plan, however we're finding more and more situations where
this introduces a lot more pain than it solves. For F12 at least it
seems quite too late to switch to using dracut images by default anyway.
