15 Ulrich,

17 I have read the log, and that is where the confusion is.

19 If that is true, and I think folks would beg to differ, we can say that
20 the way separate /usr is supported is via requiring an initramfs and
21 move forward from there because that would still be within the
22 council's requirement since there is now documentation on how to build
23 an initramfs.
24
25 I know at least one council member who was at that meeting who would
26 strongly disagree and say that what you voted for was that separate
27 /usr, without an initramfs, is a supported configuration.

29 Thoughts?
