======================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================
======================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================

My plan for 17 of July was:
	- Test the image
	- Fix the controller build cmdline function ( from builder )
	- Fix the cmdline moddir location function ( from builder )
	- Write controller (dracut module) documentation
	
======================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================

My plan for 18 of July was:
	- Write controller (dracut module) documentation
	- Write export flags and args function. Same as builder's case, but for the controller image

======================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================

My plan for 19 of July was:
	- Include a function to read configs instead of reading only cmdline options.
	- Create a function to read and source custom network script. This option could be used to support complex network setups
	- Create a hook script function to source custom scripts at dracut hook points.

======================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================

My plan for 20 of July was:
	- Include a cmdline export function for the controller's options
	- Include a dracut_optitons function: This function will export dracut options the same way as they would given manually to dracut.
	- Include a function to handle the dracut options in case they are given and disable the default controller options that are set.
		Example: The name of the initramfs is generated by: "initramfs-${GSEVER}-$(uname -r)". If a -kver is given in the dracut options,
			this entry should change to "initramfs-${GSEVER}-kver" and to "initramfs-$name-kver" if a name is given too.

======================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================================

My plan for 21 of July was:
	- Finish thy  dracut options function
	- Finish the custom modules handling function ( a function that will read either insmod,probe,auto,blacklist and will handle the following entries)
		- Example --build-controller --module-insmod="ker_mod1 ker_mod2 ker_mod3", will create an entry in the initramfs init after udev has finished, that will load the above modules with insmod.
		- On the other hand, --module-blacklist="ker_mod1 ker_mod2" will add the following modules in the blacklist.
