I tried that.  It broke.  It didn't boot not even once.  Google was no
help either tho I found others with the same issues but no fix.  Right
now I am using the dracut thingy.  If it breaks, I have no idea how to
fix it.  That's one reason why I left Mandrake, the init thingy kept
breaking every few months.  Then after one upgrade, I was just fed up.
I moved on.

Keep in mind, this is Dale, the one that has issues with things.  lol
