What's wrong with: |
7 |
* having an "early mounts" list file |
8 |
* having an "early modules" list file |
9 |
* init system in early boot (e.g., OpenRC in init.sh) loading "early |
10 |
modules" and mounting "early mounts" from /etc/fstab |
11 |

This will solve the issue with most non-complex (i.e., no raid or |
13 |
encryption) initramfs-less setups, without requiring that users |
14 |
migrate to initramfs (e.g., after dealing with genkernel-generated |
15 |
scripts for a long time, I wouldn't touch it with a pointed stick |
16 |
anymore). The relevant files can be also generated automatically |
17 |
during an upgrade (empty "early modules" and empty or /usr-only "early |
18 |
mounts", depending on /etc/fstab contents). |
