Thanks Joost for posting in the dev list and for explaining your proposed
approach there. I've just read your thread in the dev list:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/72969
Zac's response helped me understand better what the Gentoo devs have been
suggesting here:
http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_020fa80d72c84c5b587b90d8001264ef.xml
and it does make sense - their version of initramfs-'lite'.
From what I understand:
1. The minimal initramfs will only need to be built once (and rarely rebuilt
thereafter). This removes one of my fears and it was a main objection for me
- I would hate to have to rebuild initramfs every time I roll a new kernel, or
libs and what not of fs happen to be udpated, etc.
2. If initramfs fails, then Zac says it will drop you into a minimal shell, so
we should still be able to recover/troubleshoot/reboot from there.
The only drawback is the 2 minutes it will take a user the first time this
change is introduced to build the initramfs and change the kernel line in
grub.conf. I am warming up to this proposal because it seems to me that it
will end up being less painful that I originally thought.
However, I still see it as a workaround to a more elegant solution, which as
Joost and others suggest would involve separating udev's probing for devices
with the rules running of scripts for them.
