@aur_person23 sure, all available config files of dracut used in the initrd generation process for any variants, see man 5 dracut.conf for search paths.

But if you need to pass some flags only for some variants, you need to used ukify_variants as you stated.

Quick question:

Does dracut-ukify automatically take existing flags from e.g.: /etc/dracut.conf.d/myflags.conf?

Or are you supposed to move those flags into dracut-ukify.conf like so:

ukify_variants=(
  [default]="--omit_dracutmodules+=" network nfs cifs " --add_drivers+=" i915 ""

?

@qupfer that's leftover of previously broken systemd-ukify package, which didn't depends on python and so all of it broken. Nowadays this dep can be removed, yeah.

hi, nothing wrong but just out of curiosity (because I can't see it): Why depend 'this' on python?

Since version 7-2, 90-dracut-ukify-install.hook fails with the following error:

 (3/5) Updating linux images...
 /usr/bin/dracut-ukify: line 184: /usr/lib/modules/6.7.8-arch1-2/pkgbase: No such file or directory
 error: command failed to execute correctly

The issue seems to be the dracut-ukify script looking for the previous version of the linux package that was just updated (and thus no longer exists), but doesn't recognize the new version that was just installed.

@ishanarora fixed, ty for report

@chaserhkj I've added per-variant overrides of cmdline in version 7, ty for suggestion.

BUG: removing a dkms module package doesn't update linux images.

Following should be included in 90-dracut-ukify-install.hook:

[Trigger]
Type = Path
Operation = Remove
Target = usr/src/*/dkms.conf

Additionally Target = usr/src/*/dkms.conf should be removed from 60-dracut-ukify-remove.hook.

Thanks for your work!

Can we have some options in dracut-ukify.conf to append different ukify parameters for different variants? I want to add some special kernel boot parameters to a variant but found out that adding "--kernel-cmdline" to dracut via ukify_variants does not work. The flag seems to only override parameters that dracut initramfs needs from kernel cmdline.

Is it possible to enable dracut output messages?
