While investigating a problem, I decided to look in
my initramfs to see what modules it loaded.
There ain't anything there any longer! How does this
stuff work these days?
[root@tomh boot]# cpio -it < initramfs-5.3.7-200.fc30.x86_64.img
.
early_cpio
kernel
kernel/x86
kernel/x86/microcode
kernel/x86/microcode/GenuineIntel.bin
26 blocks
That early_cpio file is a text file with nothing but a
line that says "1" in it.
There used to be kernel modules and scripts and stuff.
I'm so confused now.
They're probably still there. I don't know how the initramfs' format may
have changed but
[root@ddt-f30 boot]# lsinitrd initramfs-5.3.7-200.fc30.x86_64.img
still shows that there's lots of modules in my initramfs.
