Someone would need to implement it in genkernel initrds though as at the moment only dracut can handle it. In terms of package maintenance, I took the package from aidecoe when he dropped it to avoid it getting removed. People seem to have found issues in there now and it could use a bump. As I cannot boot my systems using dracut initrds right now, feel free to take the package (and the openrc plugin for it) and fix/bump/do whatever with it. >=20 > Thanks for your help >=20 --=20 Alex Legler Gentoo Security/Ruby/Infrastructure --------------enig411CB8E8703FA11775EC96DE Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJRBbd8AAoJEDa6ZWES7jAA38YP+gPXbgDdTTJLfjnEaLnv60VR 46ye8rN+tvQx40J5tp+Mbate49uoIrYsWWqaXsjiCwKFmN1VbhnT/CDxR0JdqPMi g+RBc6TvZasof1o+9chdBbB8pEsVScR+UkFlMs9YlE+6pmay9FFMv0K9E1ftObfv 6tKXogBpHuTCxirJI7uMMdgVPujhuU/h5vnDOUgwr/+zl2diZdGpETl3Xve4AOY5 0r4z19rYlnAm3X3uR0v+kPJn73rEttnRJkMqibQ8mqRTIRAtwd4b0jIKkF9N/hlO h49EQSe/3mmBArWWJSN4psAqW6DeModTj48UUWh1vnAIqXDMrGRJO5GILxued4zj Vldkd7wZj/6RqfonoJzRdClGVVfYEjSIAzWPkb68vZ/ovsAKWh/o36IvUKB6zLdA g1ZwpKwue0cJDvCyip+f302tlroCvLRSxqUGw0edzJo58KvV/ME315FOtU7UOEOS gfNotcq1OtyyEVJMgoCSU69spCDj3uMBwTJmU/3MBxHmpVBbIH7FSqnEKfrEJZO8 HLgG5nkt3FdZpj9ZM4I2f5Xa3wFyOJfMPV4FHu5HbIdvqnOqdVwws5G4rW9hRoIo Toy3eWBb36eU39Tr4Hs3MdOGRU4OeWx3pqFFFls7RVMaK4028lHYUBODyEU5qRJ9 xubcA5oA9nzHj0VL50Ys =pVcq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig411CB8E8703FA11775EC96DE--
